Brace yourselves, Rams fans: Davante Adams is likely sitting out Week 17. This news might sting, but it's all about the long game.
The star wide receiver, Davante Adams, is unfortunately expected to miss the upcoming Week 17 game against the Falcons due to a nagging hamstring injury. He was already ruled doubtful for the Thursday night overtime loss to the Seahawks, and now, it seems like he won't be ready in time for the Monday night showdown.
The Rams are in a comfortable position, having already secured a playoff spot. This gives them the luxury of potentially holding Adams out until the playoffs begin, allowing him maximum time to heal and fully recover. This strategic move ensures that their key player is in top form when it matters most.
But here's where it gets controversial: Right guard Kevin Dotson also suffered an ankle sprain during the game. Coach Sean McVay has indicated that Dotson will likely miss the next game as well. Adding fuel to the fire, McVay mentioned that the injury didn't stem from a controversial incident where Seahawks defensive lineman Derick Hall appeared to stomp on Dotson's leg. Hall has been suspended for one game as a result of his actions. This raises the question: Was the suspension justified, or is it an overreaction? What do you think?
