Adams' goal-line role vanished in Week 1; massive red flag for TD-dependent profile.
Adams' 2025 success was largely driven by his unique role as the Rams' go-to goal-line back, with 14 touchdowns (11 from within the 10-yard line) carrying his season despite otherwise down numbers. In Week 1, it is an 'absolutely massive red flag' that Adams played just one of the Rams' nine snaps inside the 20-yard line (only six of nine snaps inside the 10-yard line). Given how touchdown-dependent Adams' profile is at this point, the source recommends overreacting rather than underreacting to this change in usage.
