## Key points

- Davante Adams could return sooner than expected.
- Puka Nacua and other receivers are also unavailable.
- The Rams made no trade deadline move to reinforce the squad.

## Summary

The Rams have received encouraging news about Davante Adams, with coach Sean McVay saying the receiver could return sooner than first expected. A possible comeback in the coming weeks would be significant for a team whose depleted receiving options are placing more pressure on quarterback Matthew Stafford and its playoff hopes.

Adams ruptured a hamstring in the Week 6 loss to Arizona and was initially expected to miss six to 10 weeks. Puka Nacua is also sidelined with knee sprains and turf toe, while Jordan Whittington has been placed on injured reserve; tight end Terrance Ferguson remains out too. The Rams did not add a receiver before the trade deadline, leaving inexperienced players and recently re-signed Xavier Smith to help cover the gaps.
