Davante Adams 2026 Fantasy Football Outlook: Touchdown Upside Comes With Draft Risk
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams remains a high-upside fantasy option after catching 60 of 114 targets for 789 yards and an NFL-leading 14 touchdowns across 14 games in 2025. He finished as the WR9 in PPR formats while averaging 15.9 fantasy points per game, giving fantasy managers strong weekly production when healthy. Adams still carries clear value in Sean McVay's offense as a trusted scoring weapon for Matthew Stafford, especially with Puka Nacua drawing defensive attention on the other side. The concern is that Adams' production leaned heavily on touchdowns, with 84 of his 222.9 PPR points coming from scores. His 52.6% catch rate, limited yards-after-catch production (2.0), and late-season hamstring issue add real volatility entering 2026. Adams can still deliver spike weeks in a high-end offense, but the floor is not as safe as the name suggests. All the key pieces for the Rams are returning in Stafford, Nacua, and running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum, so Adams' role in the Rams offense shouldn't change much in 2026. He is currently going 43 overall as the WR19 on Sleeper, which sits well ahead of his WR18 ranking at RotoBaller, making him a risky bet at cost rather than a priority target.
