Davante Adams injury update: Latest on Rams WR for game vs. Seahawks
The Los Angeles Rams improved to 11-3 following their impressive 41-34 comeback win over the Detroit Lions in Week 15.
They finished the game without Davante Adams, who re-aggravated a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter.
The Rams travel to Seattle on a short week to battle the Seahawks (11-3) on "Thursday Night Football." The question remains whether the star wide receiver will suit up.
NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reported on Dec. 15 that Adams is considered "week-to-week" with the hamstring injury. Rapoport wrote Adams is "almost certainly" going to miss the Rams' Week 16 "Thursday Night Football" game but the team listed the 12-year veteran as doubtful on Wednesday's final injury report.
The winner of this pivotal "Thursday Night Football" matchup will likely take control of the NFC West division and have the inside track to the NFC's No. 1 seed.
Here's the latest on Adams before the "Thursday Night Football" kickoff against the Seahawks.

Davante Adams injury update
The Rams have not yet announced whether Adams will be available for Thursday night's game against the Seahawks.
Adams failed to practice in any capacity on the short week and his status for the game is still undetermined. Official word may not come until the Rams announce their inactive players for "Thursday Night Football."
Adams has not missed any games this season. He has not missed a game since September 2024, when he missed two games due to a hamstring injury. Prior to that, he played all but one game between 2021 and 2023.
With Rapoport suggesting Adams will miss Thursday's game, it's likely the Rams will allow Adams extra time to rest with the "mini bye" following "Thursday Night Football." The Rams have already clinched a playoff spot but remain in the race for the No. 1 seed.
Los Angeles would certainly benefit if Adams can regain full health by the start of the postseason.
Rams WR depth chart -
Puka Nacua
Davante Adams (questionable – hamstring)
Konata Mumpfield
Tutu Atwell
Jordan Whittington
Xavier Smith
Nacua ranks second in the NFL in receptions (102) and receiving yards (1,367), but if Adams misses time, the wide receiver room is thin. Atwell returned from IR in Week 15 and Mumpfield has scored just one touchdown this season. No Rams wide receivers outside of Nacua and Adams have garnered more than 25 targets in 2025.
Running back Kyren Williams and tight end Colby Parkinson will likely see additional work if Adams misses time.
This story will be when new information becomes available.
