The Rams recently had trade talks with the Eagles for receiver A.J. Brown. As mentioned on Saturday, the Rams eventually tapped out . So what if they'd made the trade for Brown? It would have left them with Puka Nacua (who's eventually getting a significant second contract), Davante Adams (who'll make $24 million in cash in 2026), and Brown (who'll make $29 million this year). Per a league source, the Rams — while talking about a possible trade for Brown — were pursuing the possibility of trading Adams. The Rams presumably were hoping to get a deal done by today, when a fully-guaranteed $6 million roster bonus came due. And the payment of the bonus likely means they'll keep Adams and his $18 million base salary. Regardless, a week with a handful of interesting developments could have had two more: A.J. Brown traded to the Rams, and Davante Adams (the league leader in receiving touchdowns in 2025) traded to what would have been his fifth NFL team.
