Davante Adams keeps carving out a place among the NFL’s receiving greats, and Monday night gave him another line on that résumé.
In the Rams’ 37-34 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills, Adams caught two touchdown passes and moved into a tie for sixth on the league’s all-time receiving touchdowns list. The performance pushed his career total to 121, putting him alongside Pro Football Hall of Famer Larry Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald spent all 17 of his NFL seasons with the Arizona Cardinals and became one of the most dependable receivers the game has ever seen. Adams has now reached the same touchdown mark, and the names ahead of him tell the story of how rare this territory is.
Jerry Rice sits at the top with 197 receiving touchdowns, followed by Randy Moss with 156 and Terrell Owens with 153. Cris Carter is fourth with 130, and Marvin Harrison is fifth with 128. Every player ahead of Adams has already been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Adams has also built his scoring reputation where it matters most. According to ESPN, he has 87 receiving touchdowns in the red zone, which ranks third all time. Only Rice, with 94, and Antonio Gates, with 92, are ahead of him.
The milestone comes during Adams’ second season with Los Angeles. Through five games in the 2026 NFL season, the 33-year-old has four receiving touchdowns. He had 14 touchdown catches last year, another reminder that he still finishes drives at a high level.
The Rams, though, are still trying to steady themselves. They enter Week 6 at 2-3 after the narrow overtime loss to Buffalo.
Next up is a home game against the Arizona Cardinals, who are 1-4, next Sunday. For Los Angeles, Adams’ production has been one of the few constants, and the Rams will need more of it if they’re going to turn the season around.

Cardinals Tryout Move Could Signal Help At A Position Of Need
The Cardinals continued taking a broad look at their personnel options by bringing in eight players for tryouts, a routine move that can serve both as a database refresh and a chance to spot a fit at a position of need. Among the group was offensive guard Jamaree Salyer, which is the sort of name that naturally draws attention when a team is still sorting through ways to shore up the line.
Arizona also looked at quarterback Conner Bazelak, linebackers Bradyn Swinson and Riley Wilson, and four wide receivers, underscoring that this was more than a single-position check-in. Still, the presence of Salyer in the workout raises the more interesting question for the Cardinals: whether the tryout was just exploratory, or the first step toward adding a lineman who could factor into the roster picture sooner rather than later.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Trade Just Reignited A Cardinals Value Debate
Marvin Harrison Jr.s move out of Arizona did more than change the Cardinals receiver room - it reopened a familiar front-office question about what the market really looks like for a talented player when production has been uneven. Around the league, multiple teams had come to believe Harrisons trade value had slipped because of inconsistent performance, which made his availability notable even before any deal was finalized.
The Kansas City Chiefs were among the clubs watching the wider receiver market, especially with injuries hitting Tyquan Thornton and Rashee Rice, but they never seriously moved on Harrison. Instead, Houston stepped in and made the deal with Arizona, sending second- and sixth-round picks to the Cardinals and getting Harrison plus a 2027 seventh-round pick back, a return that now sits at the center of the value debate.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Has Cardinals Fans Watching One Painful Texans Storyline
Marvin Harrison Jr. is already back in the AFC South spotlight, and this time the conversation around him has shifted from Arizona to Houston. The former Cardinals wide receiver was dealt to the Texans in a move that sent future draft capital back to Arizona, giving Houston a proven playmaker and giving Cardinals fans another reminder of how quickly a roster can change around a young receiver.
DeMeco Ryans said Harrison will be on the field Sunday against the Jaguars, setting up an immediate reunion with former college quarterback C.J. Stroud. For Arizona, it is the kind of transaction that lingers beyond the transaction itself, because the value of moving a talent like Harrison is not measured only by what comes back right away, but by what those future picks can turn into later.
