Davante Adams is on the trade block.
There are multiple reports that the Las Vegas Raiders are seeking to trade the three-time All-Pro in addition to a report that Adams wants out. Add in head coach Antonio Pierce’s social media activity all but endorsing a trade, and Adams’ exit from Las Vegas seems inevitable.
It appears at this point that it’s just a matter of working out the details — the most important of which is finding a trade partner.
Adams, 31, is on the back slope of his career. But he was a first-team All-Pro just two seasons ago and managed 103 receptions for 1,144 yards and eight touchdowns last season while catching passes from Aidan O’Connell, Jimmy Garoppolo and Brian Hoyer.
There’s plenty left in the tank to make Adams a coveted target for a contender or a team with a strong young quarterback looking to upgrade its passing game. There are multiple teams early in the NFL season that fit that bill.
New York Jets
This one jumps off the page. Adams developed into one of the NFL’s best receivers in eight seasons of catching passes from Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay. Rodgers is now quarterbacking a Jets team that through four games has fallen well short of expectations of an offensive breakout.
The Jets entered the season with Super Bowl hopes, but are 2-2 and coming off one of the worst losses of the NFL season — a 10-9 home loss to the Denver Broncos. The Jets scored three field goals and failed to find the end zone in Sunday’s loss. Alarms are blaring. This offense needs a boost.

Third-year pro Garrett Wilson is a standout, but so far has been limited to 191 yards and one touchdown through four games in a stagnant offense. Allen Lazard, who played with Rodgers in Green Bay, is New York’s leading receiver with 206 yards. Who better to add a jolt to the Jets attack than Rodgers’ all-time favorite target?
Dallas Cowboys
Cue up another team that’s raised…
