Avast ye scurvy dogs! Thar be talk o' them New York Jets, a bunch of landlubbers, who ain't takin' no for an answer in tryin' to barter fer that Las Vegas Raiders receiver Davante Adams. Methinks they be chasin' after him like a pack o' hungry sharks!
Davante Adams, the All-Pro wide receiver, may have a chance to reunite with his old friend and quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, as the New York Jets are reportedly making an aggressive push to acquire him from the Las Vegas Raiders. The Jets have been linked to Adams ever since they traded for Rodgers. The Jets' GM, Joe Douglas, tried to talk to the Raiders about trading for Adams before the deadline, as Adams was unhappy with the team's performance under quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. Adams wanted to play for the Raiders because his college quarterback, Derek Carr, was on the team. However, the Raiders moved on from Carr for Garoppolo, and Adams showed clear frustration on the sideline during games. Despite this, Adams seems happier with the team's recent success under interim head coach Antonio Pierce. However, Adams' availability for the Raiders may depend on how the season ends. If the Raiders continue to win and compete for a playoff spot, Adams may choose to stay. But if not, a trade request could be on the horizon, and the Jets are ready to pounce on that opportunity. Adams and Rodgers were a dynamic duo in Green Bay, with Adams leading the NFL in touchdown catches in 2020. They remain close friends, and the Jets want to give Rodgers all the offensive firepower he deserves as they make a playoff push. Adams still has three years left on his contract with the Raiders, but there is a potential opt-out clause in 2025.
