Possible Puka Nacua Suspension Opens Door to Davante Adams' Early-Season Explosion

Thursday, August 13, 7:10 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams could see a heavy workload in the first few games of the season. In his first season with the Rams in 2025, Adams recorded 789 yards and 14 touchdowns in 14 games, finishing as the WR8 in half-PPR formats. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported earlier in the week that the NFL is reviewing a potential suspension of star receiver Puka Nacua for making antisemitic slurs and allegedly biting a woman during the offseason. Depending on the severity of any suspension, Adams will be assigned a heavy workload during that period. He is currently ranked WR20 in RotoBaller's positional rankings, which could be an incredible value if Nacua misses time.

Parker Washington Expected Back Next Week

Friday, August 21, 5:48 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington (undisclosed) is expected to return to practice next week after missing time with an undisclosed injury, according to NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Coming into training camp as part of a crowded receiver room, Washington quickly reestablished the connection he formed with quarterback Trevor Lawrence down the stretch of the 2025 season. Washington was the WR12 over the final nine weeks of the regular season, while Lawrence was the QB1 over that same span. By most accounts, Washington has again proven to be Lawrence's favorite target for much of camp, and with his availability for Week 1 not looking to be in question, the fourth-year receiver still represents a value in the middle rounds of drafts, priced as the WR31 by current ADP.
