Los Angeles wide receiver Davante Adams has an oblique injury that led to his exit in the fourth quarter of the 42-26 win over the host San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Rams coach Sean McVay said after the game.
Adams had six receptions on eight targets for 77 yards, including a 2-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter, before leaving the game in Santa Clara, Calif. McVay said Adams probably could have kept playing, but the Rams' advantage by multiple scores may have influenced the decision.
'He got his oblique,' McVay said in the postgame press conference. 'Think he probably could have been able to come back if it was a little bit closer, kinda similar to Puka (Nacua) last week. But he was outstanding today. You really felt his presence early and often in the game, comes away with another touchdown, but I don't have an update in terms of anything specific.'
Los Angeles improved to 7-2 and is tied for first place in the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks.
Adams, 32, has 42 receptions on 78 targets for 568 yards, 13.5 per catch and an NFL-leading nine touchdowns in nine games in his first season with the Rams.
The six-time Pro Bowl selection and three-time first-team All-Pro moved to eighth all-time in career touchdown catches with 112, passing tight end Tony Gonzalez.
Adams has 999 career receptions for 12,412 yards. He has played 12 years for the Green Bay Packers (2014-21), Las Vegas Raiders (2022-24), New York Jets (2024) and Rams.
The Packers selected Adams in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft out of Fresno State. They traded him to the Raiders in March 2022 for first- and second-round picks in 2022.
The Raiders dealt him to the Jets on Oct. 14, 2024 for a conditional 2025 third-round pick.
Adams signed a two-year contract with the Rams in March for a reported $46 million with $26 million guaranteed.
