Davante Adams hypes up young Rams WR on Instagram: 'Just wait'

The Los Angeles Rams have a wide-open competition for the No. 3 wide receiver spot on the depth chart this summer and among those battling for the job is Konata Mumpfield. The second-year receiver out of Pitt didn’t put up big numbers as a rookie in 2025 but he played meaningful snaps as a seventh-round pick.

>Davante Adams was a big fan of his last season, talking up the young wideout during camp and the regular season. Adams’ confidence in Mumpfield hasn’t wavered entering the 2026 campaign, either.

>Out of the blue, Adams posted a photo of Mumpfield’s locker on Instagram Monday and wrote the following caption: “The TRUTH…. just wait. 🤫”

— Cameron DaSilva (@camdasilva) June 30, 2026Mumpfield played all 17 games last season and caught 10 of his 23 targets for 92 yards with one touchdown. He played about a third of the offensive snaps, helping fill in for Tutu Atwell and Adams when they were injured.

>He's competing with Xavier Smith, CJ Daniels and Jordan Whittington for the No. 3 receiver spot and it's truly anyone's job for the taking. Mumpfield is the best route runner of the bunch, so if he can start creating after the catch a bit more, he could become a playmaker for Los Angeles.
