Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Rams haven't played the type of football they hoped for entering the season. There are many reasons for that, and a lot of it is due to some of the injuries they've dealt with on both sides of the football.
On the offensive side, it was recently reported that Davante Adams is undergoing hamstring surgery.
Adams might not be the top-five receiver he was for much of his career, but he's still elite.
Adams has done nothing but perform at a high level since he joined the Rams, and replacing him needs to be a top priority.
As for how that can happen, the Rams aren't exactly in the best position to land a player as talented as him. The reality is that they're going to have to take a chance on a player, with Brian Thomas Jr. recently being floated as an option.
“You have to think the Rams will be in the wide receiver market now,” ESPN’s Mike Clay posted on X.
“Dare I say Brian Thomas Jr?”
Thomas, currently with the Jacksonville Jaguars, figures to be a prime trade candidate at this year's NFL trade deadline.
He hasn't shown in the NFL that he's a star, but there have been some promising signs throughout his career. It'll be interesting to see which team eventually trades for him at the deadline, as reports suggest he'll be dealt.
