Rams Pessimistic About Davante Adams' Status for Week 16?

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury during the team's 41-34 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Adams exited Sunday's game after reaggravating his left hamstring that he had been managing over the last couple of weeks. The 32-year-old had hauled in four catches for 71 yards on nine targets before exiting the game in the fourth quarter and did not return. Coach Sean McVay sounded pessimistic about Adams' status for Thursday's game against the Seattle Seahawks, then went on to say, "but I certainly wouldn't rule him out quite yet," reported by Stu Jackson of RamsNFL. It is worth noting that the Rams did clinch a playoff spot after their win over the Lions.

Puka Nacua Returns to Sunday's Game

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (cramping) has returned to Sunday's contest against the Detroit Lions, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The star wideout exited the game in the fourth quarter due to a cramping injury. However, he was able to quickly return, suggesting this injury was not overly serious. Managers should keep an eye on his status during the week leading up to their Week 16 contest on Thursday evening in case he faces a setback. Nacua has enjoyed a stellar showing during this game, catching nine of his 11 targets for 181 yards, which is on track to be a season-high.

Puka Nacua Questionable to Return Due to Cramps, Potentially Avoids Injury Scare

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (cramping) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest due to cramping. The superstar wideout suffered this injury in the fourth quarter. While he may be in danger of missing the final minutes of this contest, it appears he has avoided a significant injury. Before exiting, Nacua enjoyed another massive showing, bringing in nine of his 11 targets for 181 yards. With Davante Adams (hamstring) also exiting the contest early, managers should expect Tutu Atwell and Joran Whittington to serve as the top options in the passing attack for the remainder of Sunday's game. Given that he appears to have avoided a serious injury, Nacua should be on track to suit up on Thursday when the Rams face the Seahawks.

Davante Adams Exits Sunday's Contest with Hamstring Injury

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) exited Sunday's contest against the Detroit Lions due to a hamstring injury. The star wideout suffered this non-contact injury while running a route in the fourth quarter and immediately went to the locker room. Entering this game, Adams carried a questionable tag due to a hamstring injury after missing the first two practices of the week and remaining in a limited capacity on Friday. Managers should pay close attention leading up to his Week 16 clash against the Seahawks, which is on Thursday evening. Puka Nacua figures to take on an even higher share of the targets for the remainder of Sunday's contest, while Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell move up the depth chart.

Rams Prioritizing Puka Nacua Extension

The Los Angeles Rams plan to prioritize a long-term extension for superstar wide receiver Puka Nacua, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. The Rams will reportedly try to make Nacua one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL during the upcoming offseason. The BYU product is in the middle of his third season and has been dominant every year, establishing himself as one of the best young receivers in football. As a non-first-round pick, Nacua is only under team control for four years after being drafted, which means his contract is currently set to expire after the 2026 campaign. An extension would give the Rams long-term stability at the wide receiver position with Davante Adams, 32, more of a short-term option. Fantasy managers would appreciate the consistency, too, as Nacua was the WR4 in PPR leagues as a rookie and is the overall WR2 so far this year.

Davante Adams Expected to Suit Up Against Lions

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) is expected to play in Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Detroit Lions, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Head coach Sean McVay previously said that he thought Adams would be able to suit up, and Schefter's report aligns with McVay's comments. The veteran receiver has appeared in all 13 games so far and was listed as questionable to face Detroit. He posted a modest four catches for 29 yards last week, but before that, he put together an impressive six-game touchdown streak. Adams ranks as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues this year with 56 catches, 718 yards, and 14 trips to the end zone. He should be viewed as a top-10 fantasy receiver for Week 15 as the Rams host the Lions.

Tutu Atwell Activated From Injured Reserve

The Los Angeles Rams activated wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) off Injured Reserve, and he will play on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. Atwell will make his return in Week 15 after missing six games due to a hamstring injury. The 26-year-old wideout wasn't a significant piece of the Rams offense before getting injured, playing 38% of the offensive snaps and catching four of his nine targets for 164 yards and a touchdown in six games. The speedy wideout will likely slot back in as the team's No. 2 wide receiver behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams on Sunday against Detroit. Atwell projects as a deep league flex option at best in his first game back in Week 15.

Puka Nacua Set for Enticing Matchup as Rams Host Lions

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has been excellent this season, and he should continue to play at a high level in a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions on Sunday in Week 15. He has been able to co-exist alongside Davante Adams (hamstring), as both players rank within the top six wide receivers in fantasy scoring this year. Nacua himself is the overall WR2 in scoring, trailing only Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The 24-year-old could shrink the gap between him and Smith-Njigba this week, given that Nacua has an extremely enticing matchup against the Lions. Detroit's defense has allowed the fifth-most receiving yards, second-most touchdowns, and second-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Nacua ranks as the overall WR3 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Davante Adams Looks to Shed Injury Tag, Bounce Back as a WR1

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) is looking to bounce back against the Detroit Lions in Week 15 after a relatively disappointing performance last Sunday. Although he is currently listed as questionable to face Detroit, head coach Sean McVay indicated that the veteran receiver should suit up. Adams saw his six-game touchdown streak come to an end last weekend, but he has still been one of the NFL's most dangerous scoring threats with 14 touchdowns through 13 games. He is the sixth-highest-scoring fantasy receiver in 2025 and has shown that he can co-exist with Puka Nacua in this elite Matthew Stafford-led offense. Adams should excel this week against the Lions, who have allowed the fifth-most receiving yards, second-most touchdowns, and second-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. He ranks as the overall WR5 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Blake Corum • RB • Rams

Blake Corum Carries Momentum into Meeting with Tough Lions Run Defense

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has plenty of momentum on his side ahead of Week 15 against the Detroit Lions. Over the last two weeks, Corum has totaled 19 carries for 209 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns, plus a three-yard reception. He has continued to play around one-third of the offensive snaps, and he has posted otherworldly efficiency with 11.0 yards per carry between his last two games. Corum's increased role and productivity have come as a result of the Rams lightening Kyren Williams' workload to keep him fresh for the playoffs. Williams had just one more rush attempt than Corum last week, and the two have combined for five touchdowns over the last two games. While we expect Corum to remain heavily involved for the final few weeks of the regular season, his efficiency may come back down to earth this week. After all, the Lions have allowed the eighth-fewest rushing yards, sixth-fewest rushing touchdowns, and second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. Still, Corum has proven that he has standalone value in fantasy football. He ranks as the overall RB36 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Kyren Williams Maintains High Efficiency in Reduced Role

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams continues to handle a reduced role as the team looks to keep him fresh heading into the 2025 NFL playoffs. While Williams is now averaging 14.0 touches per game over the last five weeks (compared to 21.9 touches per game last season), he has been able to stay on the fantasy radar as a low-end RB1 thanks to his yardage and touchdown efficiency. He averaged 6.5 yards per carry on the ground last week, and he's averaging 5.7 yards per carry over his last five games combined. He also has five touchdowns during those five games, including a trip to the end zone in back-to-back contests. Williams ranks as the overall RB9 in PPR leagues this year while starting to co-exist with Blake Corum, who has taken on a much larger role lately. He has also proven to be matchup-proof, which means managers shouldn't be too concerned about this week's game against the Lions, who have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. Even with Corum making an impact and a tough Lions run defense on tap, we expect Williams to remain a very strong running back option ahead of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues. He ranks as the overall RB12 in the latest RotoBaller fantasy rankings for Week 15.

Matthew Stafford • QB • Rams

Matthew Stafford Set for Big Game Against Former Team

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford meets his old team, the Detroit Lions, for a revenge game on Sunday in Week 15. Stafford is having the best season of his storied career, completing exactly one-third of his pass attempts for 3,354 yards, 35 touchdowns, and just four interceptions. He has supported fantasy-relevant roles for a wide variety of Rams skill players, including Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, and Colby Parkinson, as well as running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. Stafford's strong campaign should continue this week. While he was already quite matchup-proof, he should find plenty of success against the Lions, who have allowed the fifth-most passing touchdowns and sixth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. He ranks as the overall QB2 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and should be started in all leagues.

Colby Parkinson a Viable Fantasy Streamer Against Detroit

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has been one of the biggest fantasy risers within the last month or so. Over his last five games, he has 17 catches, 155 yards, and four touchdowns, ranking as the overall TE4 in half-PPR leagues during that span. He has filled in quite admirably for Tyler Higbee (ankle), and he should continue to remain heavily involved as a top target for Matthew Stafford in his Week 15 revenge game against the Detroit Lions. At worst, Parkinson will be third in the pecking order this week behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams (hamstring). However, Adams is listed as questionable, so if he doesn't suit up, Parkinson would likely be the No. 2 target in this high-volume passing offense. He currently ranks as the TE19 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings, and he has top-12 upside. Parkinson is a solid fantasy streamer in leagues with at least 12 teams.

Harrison Mevis Returns Home as High-Volume Fantasy Option

Los Angeles Rams kicker Harrison Mevis has been a high-volume option ever since joining the team, but the vast majority of his kicks have been extra points rather than field goals. Since extra points account for just one point in most fantasy leagues, managers might expect that Mevis' fantasy output has been relatively low. In reality, though, he has kicked so many extra points and has been accurate enough that he remains firmly on the fantasy radar for Week 15 against the Detroit Lions. In five games with the Rams, he is 23-for-23 on extra points and 3-for-3 on field goals. Just last week alone, he converted seven kicks (six extra points and one field goal). The biggest drawback for Mevis is that the Rams have scored more touchdowns than field goals, and even when they do get a fourth-down situation in field-goal range, they're not afraid to keep the offense on the field. This has kept Mevis' floor low, but at the same time, he arguably has one of the highest ceilings among all fantasy kickers. After all, if the Rams start kicking more field goals, Mevis could jump to the top tier of fantasy kickers. As it stands, he continues to rank quite high. He's the #5 kicker in this week's RotoBaller fantasy football rankings.

Davante Adams to be Questionable, Expected to Play on Sunday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) will carry a questionable designation into Sunday's Week 15 matchup with the Lions, according to head coach Sean McVay. However, McVay added that he would be very surprised if his All-Pro wideout is unable to play. In his first season in Los Angeles, Adams has paired with third-year receiver Puka Nacua to form one of the most feared tandems in the league, helping to propel Matthew Stafford into the MVP conversation. Adams has proven particularly dangerous near the goal line, where his 11 receiving touchdowns from inside the 10-yard line match the next two players (Amon-Ra St. Brown and Christian McCaffrey) combined. While he was unable to find the endzone in a Week 14 win over the Cardinals, Adams has still recorded 11 touchdowns across his last seven games and is RotoBaller's WR5 heading into Sunday.

Davante Adams Remains Absent From Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) missed practice for a second consecutive day on Thursday. The veteran receiver picked up the injury in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals and ultimately played less than half of the offensive snaps. While it's not uncommon for a veteran player to sit out the first practice of the week as a precaution, it's more concerning to see Adams miss two practice sessions in a row. He'd likely need to log a limited or full practice on Friday in order to have any chance of playing against the Detroit Lions in Week 15. If active, the touchdown threat would rank as a mid-to-low WR1 in fantasy football. If he's sidelined, Tutu Atwell and Konata Mumpfield would earn more snaps as the Rams' No. 2 wide receiver behind superstar Puka Nacua. We should have more clarity on Adams' status when the Rams publish their final injury report on Friday.

Colby Parkinson Riding Touchdown Streak

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has emerged as the starter in replacing veteran Tyler Higbee (ankle). Since Higbee was placed on Injured Reserve before Week 12, Parkinson has had 11 catches for 100 yards and two touchdowns in the last three games. The former Seahawks starter has hauled in a touchdown in four of his last five games and ranks as the TE8 during that span. Unfortunately, the tight end rotation in Los Angeles is tight. In Week 14, Parkinson played 72% of the snaps, while Davis Allen played 75%, and rookie Terrance Ferguson played 67%. Whether it was due to a blowout victory by the Rams or a changing of the guard, fantasy managers in deeper leagues will need to monitor this room.

Davante Adams in Good Spot for Week 15 Despite Hamstring Soreness

While the Los Angeles Rams held a walkthrough on Wednesday, it was expected that veteran wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) would not have participated if it were a full-padded practice. According to Nate Atkins of The Athletic, Adams doesn't appear to be in danger of missing this weekend's game against the Detroit Lions. Adams has missed several Wednesday practice sessions this season due to hamstring soreness, but that hasn't affected his ability to play in games. In 13 games this season, he has hauled in 56 of 105 targets for 718 yards and a league-leading 14 touchdowns, paving the way to a WR6 ranking this season. The Rams face the Lions in Week 15, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Thursday and Friday's practice reports will be key in determining Adams' availability this week, but if healthy, fire up the star receiver as a WR1 in an easy matchup.

Tutu Atwell to Come Off Injured Reserve This Week

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said on Wednesday that wide receiver Tutu Atwell (hamstring) will be activated from Injured Reserve this week, according to Sarah Barshop of ESPN. Atwell hasn't played since Week 7, but he figures to be active for this Sunday's showdown against the visiting Detroit Lions in Week 15. The 26-year-old caught only four of his nine targets for 164 yards and one touchdown in six games played before his hamstring injury. Atwell is certainly a deep threat in an explosive Rams offense -- he's averaging a career-best 41 yards per catch -- but it's hard to envision him doing enough to be worthy of a waiver-wire pickup in most fantasy leagues down the stretch. Receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams draw the vast majority of looks from quarterback Matthew Stafford in this offense.

Blake Corum • RB • Rams

Is Blake Corum Fantasy Football's Top Handcuff Option?

Los Angeles Rams second-year running back out of Michigan, Blake Corum, dominated once again in Week 14, rushing for 128 yards on 12 carries (10.7 yards per carry) and two touchdowns in the Rams' 45-17 rout over the Arizona Cardinals. Corum is one of, if not the best, fantasy football handcuff right now and is a must-add off the waiver wire if available in your leagues. The Rams' offense ranks fourth in the NFL, averaging 29.2 points per game, and Kyren Williams, the Rams' lead running back, has also been solid in 2025 but has lately been giving way to Corum to help keep him fresh for the NFL playoffs. Still, Rams coaches have expressed interest in keeping both involved, and Corum is no joke, averaging 5.45 YPC on the season. Corum remains an RB3/Flex consideration in leagues with multiple flex spots or 14 teams or more. On the season, Corum has rushed for 550 yards on 101 attempts with four touchdowns. Up next for the Rams is a big NFC clash against the Detroit Lions.
