During the week, Adams did not practice at all before drawing the dreadful doubtful tag, which is a clear indication he isn't likely to play. On Thursday afternoon, the Rams made one roster move that leaves hope Adams might actually suit up. Davante Adams injury updateThe Rams announced they are elevating outside linebacker Nick Hampton from the practice squad for Thursday night's game. On the surface, that looks like good news for Adams, as the Rams did not elevate a wide receiver to take his place.

Another thing working against Adams is the fact that players rarely play on the doubtful tag, so that makes it an uphill climb for the veteran wideout. We'll get final confirmation on Adams' status for the Week 16 game against the Seahawks an hour and a half before the 8:15 p. m.
