McVay Says Rams Couldn't Find a Good Trade for a Receiver. They're Hoping Davante Adams Returns Soon
- On Wednesday, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay announced that wide receivers Davante Adams and Puka Nacua will miss time, while confirming the team did not acquire a replacement at Tuesday's trade deadline.
- The Rams opted against placing Nacua on injured reserve despite his knee injury, citing roster mechanics that limit teams to eight return designations during the regular season.
- McVay described Adams' return, sidelined since Week 6 with a hamstring injury, as "sooner than later," estimating a realistic timeline following the Week 12 game against the Green Bay Packers.
- With Nacua and Adams sidelined, the receiver group on the Rams' 53-man roster is now limited to a recent seventh-round pick, two veterans retrieved this year, and a rookie who has yet to catch a pass.
- Currently 5-4, the Rams hope to remain competitive through the upcoming weeks until their injured playmakers can return to the lineup for a potential postseason push.
