Rams WR Puka Nacua is officially off the injury report and good to go Sunday vs. New Orleans.

Related Players: Davante Adams, Jordan Whittington

Obivously a good sign for Nacua managers, as we should expect him to jump right back into his target-heavy role. Nacua and Adams should be both considered must-start options against the Saints this Sunday.

Rams WR Puka Nacua and RT Rob Havenstein are OUT for Sunday’s game against the Jaguars.

Everyone else is good to go.

This pushes Adams into fringe WR1 territory. Whittington and Atwell will be the most likely beneficiaries as secondary options, with the former offering a higher floor as a WR4 option.

Nacua seems like a stretch to play Week 7, which pushes Adams into fringe WR1 territory. Whittington and Atwell will be the most likely beneficiaries as secondary options, with the former offering a higher floor as a WR4 option.

Rams WR Puka Nacua, the NFL’s leader in catches, suffered an ankle sprain that will likely cause him to miss time, per me and Mike Garafolo.

Rapoport went on to speculate that it would make sense for Nacua to be out next week against the Jaguars, then the Rams a bye in Week 8, which would allow Nacua to regroup and further assess his injury. It's possible Nacua could be back for Week 10 if this is what the Rams opt to do. Nacua will be missed in fantasy lineups no matter how long he's out. Adams would be the clear WR1 but it could mean more looks for Atwell and Whittington. TE Higbee and the running backs could pick up the slack as well. In an update to this story, Nacua is considered day to day by the team, which does give him a chance to play in Week 7.

Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters WR Davante Adams (hamstring) will be limited in practice and listed as questionable, but McVay feels good about Adams being able to go vs. the Colts.

It's hard to imagine Nacua's target share getting much higher if Adams missed, but he's a locked-in WR1 option as it is, so no change there. Adams should be fired up as a WR2 unless we hear of a setback.

The Rams ultimately lost a heartbreaking game against the Eagles in which they had a double-digit lead and had two kicks blocked, but the silver lining is that their offense looks like an elite unit with room to get even better. When Matthew Stafford got traded to the Rams in 2021, Sean McVay started to shift from the under-center, compressed formations, run-heavy offense that he ran with Jared Goff. The offense became more spread out, used shotgun and pistol more, and passed at a higher rate because it had Stafford. The offense started to shift back last season to McVay’s original approach, going under center on 45 percent of plays, which ranked second only to the Detroit Lions.

So far, this season, they’ve shifted even more in that direction, going under center on 65 percent of snaps.

Part of the reason for this shift is in direct response to Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who has influenced the league’s 2-high meta, the story explained. The trend of keeping two safeties deep to stop explosives left them vulnerable upfront, so McVay countered with more under-center, gap-scheme runs and using more play action when throwing. The story said despite the loss, the scheme worked as intended against Fangio’s defense. The Rams had the second-highest success rate that any offense has had against Fangio’s Eagles defense (54.8 percent) and ran for the third-most yards against them as well, the story went on to say.

After a strong offseason, Reynolds is the clear-cut leader for the WR2 job. He arrived with little fanfare as a free agent (one year, $2.8 million), mainly because of a down 2024 with the Broncos and Jaguars. It also was a turbulent year; he suffered arm and head wounds in a shooting.

New Jets coach Aaron Glenn knows Reynolds from their time in Detroit, where the 30-year-old receiver was a solid complementary option. Beyond Garrett Wilson, the Jets lack big-play ability after cutting Davante Adams. Reynolds has separated from Allen Lazard and others.

This seems a little surprising, until you look at the rest of the depth chart, that is. With Justin Fields at the helm, we should expect a very run-heavy offense in New York, and even if he loses the job, we would expect more of the same from Tyrod Taylor. Reynolds makes for an interesting stacking partner with Fields, though he's much closer to a fantasy WR5 than a WR2.

Breaking news to start The Insiders on NFL Network: Davante Adams is joining the Rams, agreeing to terms on a 2-year, $46M deal.

Related Players: Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Jordan Whittington

Very interesting landing spot for Adams, and all but assures that Kupp will be moving on before the start of the 2025 season. It wasn't long ago that we were completely in the air about what the Rams' offense would look like, but they brought Stafford back and made it a point to go get Adams in case they end up shipping out Kupp. Possibly a small hit to Nacua's immediate ceiling, but this landing spot keeps Adams in the WR2 conversation now that he is out of the stench of New York.

The Jets are cutting WR Davante Adams, per source.

Unable to find a trade partner for the 3x All-Pro, New York is moving on and freeing up almost $30M in cap space.

Adams played in 11 games for the 5-12 Jets, and it looks like he could end up joining Aaron Rodgers somewhere else in 2025. Lazard is also almost guaranteed to be playing elsewhere next season, as New York will try to regroup under new head coach Aaron Glenn.
