Is Davante Adams reuniting with Aaron Rodgers on the New York Jets inevitable?
Adams, who requested a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday, informed the Raiders that the Jets are his preferred trade destination, NFL Network reported on Thursday morning. That said, the report also noted that Adams hasn’t demanded a trade to New York and mentioned the New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers as potential trade suitors.
Davante Adams: Will the New York Jets, Dallas Cowboys or New Orleans Saints make a trade?
The Athletic and Sports Illustrated have reported that there’s an expectation Adams will be dealt to the Jets, with the former outlet reporting that the Bills and Kansas City Chiefs could get involved if Las Vegas eats some of the remaining money on Adams’ five-year, $140 million deal ($65.7 million guaranteed); Adams is in the third season of that deal.
However, it is reportedly unlikely that the Raiders would trade Adams within the AFC West, which probably eliminates the suddenly receiver-needy Chiefs (as well as the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers) as possible destinations for the 31-year-old star.
Adams, a three-time All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler, has totaled 1,100-plus receiving yards in five of the past six seasons and 10-plus receiving touchdowns in six seasons. He missed the Raiders’ Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns due to a hamstring injury, which is expected to sideline him for one or two more weeks, according to The Athletic.
In the three games that Adams has appeared in this season, he has totaled 18 receptions for 209 yards and one touchdown. Adams, 31, is in his third season with the Raiders, who haven’t made the playoffs since his arrival in 2022.
