Los Angeles Rams future Hall of Fame wide receiver Davante Adams is currently battling an oblique injury that has limited him in practice throughout the week. However, while he might be banged up, this ailment won’t be enough to keep him on the sidelines. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the star wide receiver will suit up against the Seattle Seahawks for what should be one of the best games of the season.
Davante Adams Injury Update: Rams Star WR Expected to Play Against Seahawks
This is the exact news the Los Angeles Rams needed, as this is arguably the biggest game of the season for the team. Entering Week 11 with identical 7-2 records, the Rams and Seahawks are tied for the best record not only in the NFC West, but in the entire conference. The winner of this match will claim the division lead, while the loser could have to go on the road in Wild Card weekend.
Despite his age and injury, Davante Adams has been a crucial piece of this passing attack. While Puka Nacua is still the unquestioned top option, Adams has been arguably the game’s best WR2. Starting and appearing in all nine games, the wide receiver has recorded 42 receptions for 568 yards and a league-leading nine touchdowns on 78 targets. With his help, star quarterback Matthew Stafford has entered the MVP discussion and currently has the second-best odds to win the award, trailing only New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye.
On the opposite sideline, Sam Darnold has proven beyond any reasonable doubt that last year was not a fluke. Finding a home in Klint Kubiak’s scheme, the former first-round pick is playing at an MVP-caliber level himself. This game should be one of the best of the season as these two great quarterbacks battle for divisional supremacy.
