Davante Adams is set to return to the Los Angeles Rams for another season, and quarterback Matthew Stafford believes they can take their connection to another level.

What happened last season?

Adams led the NFL with 14 touchdown receptions in only 14 games, catching 60 passes for 789 yards in his first year with the Rams.

Why it matters for Davante Adams

Stafford missed all of training camp last year with a back injury, which hurt his chemistry with Adams once the season began.

But they did work together in OTAs and in practice just before Week 1.
And assuming both stay healthy this summer, they should start the year even better in 2026.

What comes next?

It’s not unreasonable to think Adams could lead the league in touchdown receptions again in 2026, and his yardage numbers could experience an uptick from the 789 he had last season.

So Stafford is excited to run it back with Adams in 2026.
And he believes they can take things to another level.
“I'm excited. Obviously, had a really good first season with him,” Stafford said.

Adams is a special player, and Stafford feels lucky to play with him.
He has done it at a high level for such a long time.
And Stafford does not take that for granted.

The Rams' reliance on 13-personnel could limit Adams' playing time slightly.
But he should still have a big impact on the team.

Stafford and Adams have a full season as teammates under their belts now.
So they won’t be as unfamiliar with each other this time around.

And that should make a big difference in their performance.
As they look to build on last season's success.

The Rams opted to keep Adams for another season.
And expectations for his connection with Stafford are even higher.

Adams and Stafford are looking forward to the 2026 season.
And they are excited to see what they can accomplish together.

The future looks bright for the Los Angeles Rams.
With Adams and Stafford leading the way.

They are a formidable team.
And they will be looking to make a deep run in the playoffs.

The 2026 season is shaping up to be an exciting one.
For the Rams and their fans.

And Davante Adams will be a key player.
As the team looks to make a championship run.
