Rams update injury status of Davante Adams, Blake Corum ahead of Week 18 vs. Cardinals

Heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, the Los Angeles Rams won't be resting their starters despite not having a chance for the NFC West title and already clinching a playoff berth.

Head coach Sean McVay has been insistent on making sure the Rams have the necessary momentum heading into the postseason to get back on track from their two-game losing streak.

Although the usual starters are set to play, the Rams are battling key offensive injuries to wide receiver Davante Adams and running back Blake Corum. An update was provided on Wednesday.

According to reports, both Davante Adams and Blake Corum weren't seen at the Los Angeles Rams' practice on Wednesday.

Adams, 33, has missed the past two games for the Rams after aggravating the hamstring injury he's been battling for the majority of the 2025 season.

With Adams leading the league in receiving touchdowns (14), his absence has been crucial and has resulted in back-to-back losses for Los Angeles down the stretch. If he's unable to go for Week 18, the Rams will continue to lean on Puka Nacua, Tutu Atwell, and Xavier Smith.

Corum, 25, has seen an increased role in the Rams' offense in his second professional year. 

The Michigan prospect picked up an ankle injury in the first half of Los Angeles' Week 17 loss to the Atlanta Falcons and never returned to the contest. He's on the verge of missing the first game of his short career.

Through 16 games this season, Corum has 687 rushing yards and six touchdowns while adding another 26 yards on seven receptions this season.

Both players' status will be worth monitoring moving forward in the week.
