    Is Davante Adams Playing in Week 16?

    Adams is not listed on the injury report this week, so barring any setbacks, he is on track to play this weekend.

    We’ll continue to monitor the Jets’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.

    Should You Start or Sit Davante Adams in Week 16?

    It only took all season, but we FINALLY got the vintage version of Davante Adams that we’ve been starved for. The instances over the past 10 years in which a player had 190 receiving yards and multiple receiving touchdowns in a single half:

    The Week 15 performance was about as perfect as it gets. He even got you a bonus point — he had a touchdown correctly overturned (down at the one-yard line) and followed it up with a score on the next play, getting you two receptions and a score for the price of one!

    Adams has seen six end-zone targets over his past five games and has seen at least 11 balls thrown his way in five of six. If you’ve managed to get to this point with Adams on your roster, you’re in a good spot.

    You also have support. I have Adams in a dynasty league that is in the semifinals — let’s see if we can piece together a late-season run for the ages!
