Three-time All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams has agreed to terms on a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Rams, the team announced Sunday.

The deal is worth $46 million with $26 million guaranteed, according to multiple outlets.

Adams, 32, was recently released by the New York Jets, where he played 11 games and caught 67 passes for 854 yards and seven touchdowns. New York had acquired Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders to pair him with quarterback Aaron Rodgers, his longtime teammate in Green Bay. The Jets informed Rodgers, 41, last month that they were moving in a different direction at quarterback after two disappointing seasons.

Now Adams joins the Rams and star QB Matthew Stafford, 37, as Los Angeles is preparing to move on from former All-Pro wide receiver Cooper Kupp, 31.

Adams’ 2024 totals of 85 receptions for eight TDs and 1,063 yards in 14 games gave him at least 1,000 receiving yards for a fifth consecutive season.

He has 957 career receptions for 11,844 yards and 103 touchdowns in 164 regular-season games (157 starts) for the Packers (2014-21), Raiders (2022-24) and Jets. Adams also has 72 receptions for 910 yards and eight TDs in 11 playoff games (10 starts).

Adams was selected to six Pro Bowls (2017-22) and is a three-time first-team All-Pro (2020-22).

The Packers selected Adams in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft out of Fresno State. They traded him to the Raiders in March 2022 for first- and second-round picks in 2022.

The Raiders dealt him to the Jets last Oct. 14 for a conditional 2025 third-round pick.
