Davante Adams will play for the Los Angeles Rams, according to a surprising report by Ian Rapoport which was later confirmed by the team. The star wide receiver is ready to chase the first Super Bowl of his career alongside Matthew Stafford.
“Sources: Davante Adams to the Rams. He gets a 2-year deal worth $46M with $26M guaranteed. He wanted to stay on the West Coast. Davante Adams wanted more than $20M per year and to stay on the West Coast. He gets that and more. And while there was always talk of him landing with Aaron Rodgers, he found the right place for him.”
In the past few weeks, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Los Angeles Chargers seemed like options for the player, although several experts pointed out that his next destination would be tied to the team Aaron Rodgers chose.
What is Davante Adams’ next team?
The Rams are Davante Adams’ next team, and this move immediately makes Los Angeles the biggest threat to the Philadelphia Eagles in their quest to return to the Super Bowl.
Now, it is imminent that Cooper Kupp will leave the Rams, and the new receiver duo for Sean McVay will be Adams alongside Puka Nacua. After the contract extension for Matthew Stafford, this move could tilt the balance of power in the NFC.
