The Los Angeles Rams have a major question mark at the wide receiver position in Davante Adams.

Adams, who is dealing with a hamstring issue, is listed as questionable to play in the Week 15 game against the Detroit Lions.

Adams did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but he was able to log a limited session on Friday to close out the week before getting the questionable tag.

Here's what we know about Adams' chances of suiting up on Sunday afternoon.

Is Davante Adams playing today?

Yes, Adams is expected to suit up against the Lions, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.

"Rams WR Davante Adams, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a hamstring injury, is expected to play vs. The Lions, per source," Schefter wrote.

This tracks with what head coach Sean McVay said during the week. The Rams coach revealed he expected Adams to go on Friday.

"We'll be very surprised if he wasn't ready to roll, and that's what his mindset and mentality has been all week," McVay said before Friday's practice.

Davante Adams start or sit advice

This is a no-brainer.

While Adams' yardage production hasn't been elite, he is scoring touchdowns at an absurd rate, which has helped him rank as WR6 overall this season.

This is a juicy matchup for Adams this week, as the Lions are surrendering the second-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season.

As if we needed another reason to start Adams.

Verdict: Start
