The Rams signed Adams to a two-year contract worth $46 million in the offseason. The deal includes $26 million of fully guaranteed money. He will team up with Nacua to form one of the strongest receiving units in the league.

Nacua praised Adams, calling him an all-time great, and outlined how lucky he has been in his career to suit up alongside the best in the business.

"Davante, as soon as he stepped into the facility has been fantastic," Nacua said on NFL Network. "The ability to learn the game from another all-time great has been, I feel like I’m stealing. I’m like a kid in the candy store. I’ve had Matthew Stafford, Sean McVay, Cooper Kupp and now Davante Adams. My life is pretty good, I can’t complain too much. It’s gonna be fun."

Can the Los Angeles Rams compete for a Super Bowl in 2025?

The Rams have arguably the best offensive unit in the league, spearheaded by the trio of Stafford, Nacua and Adams. Meanwhile, the running game is led by superstar Kyren Williams. The Rams also have one of the most talented defenses in the league and arguably the best coach in the NFL in McVay. As a result, a Super Bowl is clearly the goal this year for Los Angeles.

Since entering the league, Nacua has exceeded expectations. Originally taken in the fifth round with the No. 177 pick in the 2023 NFL draft, Nacua has become one of the best wide receivers in the sport over the past two seasons.

His first year in the league saw him earn Second Team All-Pro, Pro Bowl, and PFWA All-Rookie Team honors after amassing 105 receptions for 1,486 yards and six touchdowns.

His numbers regressed last season due to injury, but he still managed to put up 79 receptions for 990 yards and three touchdowns in 11 games. Extrapolated over a full season, Nacua was on pace for approximately 122 receptions for 1,530 yards and five touchdowns.
