Adams Leading NFL in Major Category Since 2016

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams has totaled 83 receiving touchdowns since 2016.

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams led the league in touchdown receptions for the second time in his career last season.

Adams finished the 2022 campaign with 14 receiving touchdowns, two more than the second-place finisher, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Not only is that feat as impressive as it is, but Adams has been dominating that area of the game for years.

NFL on CBS tweeted on Wednesday that Adams has the most touchdown receptions in the NFL since 2016. And it's by quite the margin.
