McAfee: Rams' Davante Adams Looks Every Bit a Hall of Famer

Pat McAfee hailed the Los Angeles Rams wide receiver's big Monday night outing against the Giants as proof of his all-time greatness.

Former NFL punter turned broadcaster Pat McAfee offered high praise for Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams during Monday Night Football halftime coverage. McAfee pointed to Adams' hands, route running and get-off, saying everything about his game points toward a Hall of Fame career. He also noted that Adams was turning back the clock as a true No. 1 receiver, something quarterback Matthew Stafford clearly welcomes.

Adams delivered one of the standout performances of the night, hauling in eight catches for 195 yards and a pair of touchdowns. His 64-yard grab was the longest play from scrimmage by any offensive player in the game. The two scores were central to the Rams getting their season back on track after a Week 1 defeat against the San Francisco 49ers.

The outing marked a turnaround for Adams, who had struggled in the team's game in Australia. It came against a shorthanded New York Giants squad that lost rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart to a knee injury during the contest.

Adams' return to form carries extra weight because the Rams are currently without wide receiver Puka Nacua due to injury. If he can rediscover the level he reached with the Green Bay Packers, the source suggests Los Angeles would be considered a strong favorite to reach the Super Bowl out of the NFC.
