Davante Adams was dealt to the Jets but it may have taken a bit of a nudge from the wide receiver himself to get the deal over the finish line. The former Fresno State product fully admits that he told the Raiders his wish was to be traded to the Jets.
“Essentially, yeah,” Adams said when asked if he was able to tell the Raiders he wanted to be traded to the Jets. “I mean, that’s where it started. All the fans, everybody who’s associated with the Raiders, they see everything, they see a trade demand, and they just think he wants out, he’s quitting on the team, when it’s more about just being able to feel like I can … I don’t want that helpless feeling of feeling like I’m on the field — not every game’s gonna be a 100-yard game or a 150-, 200-yard game — but I wanna feel like I can impact the game every time I touch the field. So just having the confidence that I’ll be able to make some plays and change the game if need be versus getting out there on the field and feeling like we need too many things to go right in order for me to be successful.”
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Adams really just wanted to be reunited with Aaron Rodgers again. If a trade was going to come to fruition, Adams’ priority was finding a way to play with Rodgers again. You can’t really blame him for that stance given the QB situation right now in Las Vegas.
