The Los Angeles Rams' playmaker was always going to change numbers. According to Puka Nacua, despite rumors, Davante Adams never demanded Nacua's 17, as Nacua wanted to change his number last season.

Nacua admitted Adams joining the Rams was "perfect timing" for him to finally take No. 12 and give up No. 17. He had wanted to switch when he was a rookie in 2023, but it was too expensive.
