Overview

  • Davante Adams is expected to play Sunday against Detroit despite a hamstring strain, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
  • Adams missed early-week practices, returned for a limited session Friday, and is officially listed as questionable for Week 15.
  • The veteran wideout faced a similar scenario in Week 14 and played, though he was limited to four catches for 29 yards.
  • Adams leads the league with 14 touchdown receptions in his first season with Los Angeles, serving as Matthew Stafford's primary red-zone target.
  • The 10-3 Rams are tied with Seattle but hold the head-to-head tiebreaker, with matchups against the Lions and then the Seahawks likely to shape the division race; Stafford leads the NFL with 35 touchdown passes.
