The Los Angeles Rams Sign Davante Adams: 2025 Fantasy Football Implications

After a failed trade to the New York Jets in 2024, star receiver Davante Adams has decided to return to the West Coast as he has signed with the Los Angeles Rams. Let us explore how this move will impact fantasy football in 2025.
The veteran pass catcher is signing with the Los Angeles Rams on a two-year, $46 million deal. This is a significant move in the landscape of the NFL, so let us explore how this move will impact fantasy football in 2025.
This is a huge deal for a 32-year-old wide receiver, but it is clear that the Los Angeles Rams are going all-in on a Super Bowl run in 2025. After the Rams were able to retain Matthew Stafford at quarterback and are ready to move on from Cooper Kupp, it was clear that the team needed to find another talented receiver to pair with Puka Nacua, and they found just that in Davante Adams. The franchise is adding even more firepower to an already high-powered offense.
Adams is still a very talented receiver at his age, as he averaged 17.2 fantasy points per game in 2024 with both the Raiders and Jets, per the Fantasy Points Data Suite. So, the veteran pass catcher is still putting up excellent numbers fantasy-wise at this late stage of his career. Puka Nacua should still be going ahead of Davante Adams in drafts in 2025, but if I can get a “discount” on Adams because of Nacua’s presence, I would happily take it.
