The Los Angeles Daily News' Adam Grosbard reports that veteran wide receiver Davante Adams feels rejuvenated with the Los Angeles Rams and is already helping Puka Nacua and the team's other pass-catchers. Adams was traded from the Las Vegas Raiders to the New York Jets midseason last year to work with buddy Aaron Rodgers. While the 32-year-old six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro saw plenty of volume, he wasn't exactly efficient and finished the year with 85 grabs on 141 targets for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns in 14 starts. He's now working with veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, which is good news, but the volume probably won't be there like it has been while he shares targets with Nacua, who figures to be Stafford's favorite target. RotoBaller has Adams ranked as the No. 19 fantasy wideout, with Nacua coming in at No. 3.

Eric Smith of Chargers.com wrote earlier this week that Los Angeles Chargers rookie first-round running back Omarion Hampton "just keeps getting better and better." Hampton might have been at his best all summer during the team's 21st practice of training camp on Monday, although there was no live tackling allowed. However, the former North Carolina back showed his speed, athleticism and power. With Najee Harris (eye) still on the Non-Football Injury list due to a fireworks accident that injured his eye on the Fourth of July, Hampton "has stepped into the lead-back role." The 22-year-old did not play in the preseason finale this weekend but carried the ball twice for 12 yards in Week 2 of the preseason against the Rams. Even if Harris is active for Week 1 of the regular season, Hampton figures to be L.A.'s RB1, and his fantasy stock continues to rise.
