Davante Adams Exits Week 6 With Non-Contact Knee Concern

The injury raises the prospect of roster additions before the Nov. 10 trade deadline if Adams misses extended time.

Overview

  • Adams left the Rams' Week 6 game against the Cardinals in the second half after a non-contact play in which he grabbed his knee and limped to the sideline.
  • There was no official in-game diagnosis and the team had not provided a clear update after the contest, with reporters expecting comments from coach Sean McVay.
  • Before exiting, Adams had three catches for 39 yards in that game and enters the season as one of the Rams' top targets with strong early production.
  • The Rams have limited proven receiving depth beyond Adams and Puka Nacua, which would create immediate lineup and play-calling challenges if Adams is sidelined.
  • Non-contact knee injuries are commonly handled cautiously and the next medical report will determine whether the team pursues a short-term replacement or seeks help before the trade deadline.
