Adams turns 34 in December. Only reason that he's not ahead of Chase is that he has slightly higher injury concern. There are just more times where he limps off the field. Um, he's gotten injured at a higher rate... he had a ton of touchdown catches. played 14 games, caught 14 touchdowns... he was by far the number one like I know target inside the 10 yard line guy last season... he still turns 34 in December.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Elite red zone target (14 TDs in 14 games) but age 34 with higher injury rate than peers.

Elite talent but age 34 (turns 34 in December) with higher injury concern than Chase and Puka; limps off field more frequently and has gotten injured at a higher rate, which is the primary reason he is not ranked ahead of Chase despite being an elite talent. Highlights elite touchdown consistency (at least 10 touchdown catches in seven of the last 10 years) and 2025 red zone dominance: 14 games, 14 touchdown catches, and the clear number-one target inside the 10-yard line. While yards per target (second lowest since 2015) and downfield efficiency declined, this is contextualized by the red zone role inherently producing lower yards per target due to proximity to the end zone and fade route difficulty. Red zone role strength and touchdown track record remain the core value proposition despite age concern.
