In the latest NFL trading news, Davante Adams has reportedly been traded to the New York Jets from the Las Vegas Raiders. This move reunites him with quarterback Aaron Rodgers, with whom he had significant success during their time with the Green Bay Packers.
The trade comes after Adams expressed interest in leaving the Raiders, and the Jets emerged as the most likely destination. The Jets are expected to take on the majority of Adams’ 2024 salary, and the trade is seen as a major boost for their offense.
With the NFL trade window closing in November, there are and will be lots of movements and player swaps in the coming days.
Davante Adams began his NFL career after being drafted in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. He quickly established himself as one of the league’s premier wide receivers, known for his route running and chemistry with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. After a successful stint in Green Bay, which included multiple Pro Bowl selections, Adams was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders in 2022. In Las Vegas, he reunited with college teammate Derek Carr and continued his elite play, recording over 1,500 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns in his first season.
Adams’ time with the Raiders was marked by consistent individual success, but team struggles led to frustrations and eventually his desire for a trade, culminating in his move to the New York Jets in 2024.
