In the midst of injuries being a consistent issue for the Los Angeles Rams this season, the team is still looking like a Super Bowl contender after their 42-26 win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10.

Questions have continued to linger on Puka Nacua in recent weeks after missing one game earlier this season and exiting another with different injuries. This time, the injury concerns are with his counterpart, Davante Adams.

Adams, 32, appeared to have suffered an oblique injury in the Week 10 win.

Rapoport: Rams indicate that Davante Adams' injury isn't 'major'

Despite showing signs of potentially returning to the contest, Davante Adams would never get back in the lineup on Sunday.

However, NFL insider Ian Rapoport provided an update on the veteran receiver's injury.

"He (Davante Adams) suffered an oblique injury. He described it as kind of his ribs, under the ribs, maybe a side," Rapoport explained. "He did say that while it was biting during the game, he felt better after the game. Head coach Sean McVay said if the score was closer, he probably could've gone back in. Which is an indication that it is not a major injury."

All hope points towards Adams being available for the Rams' highly anticipated matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11. This will be huge as Adams is on a three-game touchdown streak and has caught six touchdowns over the last three games.

So far this season, the first-year Ram has 42 receptions, 568 receiving yards, and nine touchdowns in nine games played.
