Wide receiver Davante Adams of the Las Vegas Raiders has been the subject of trade speculations, and a possible move could be announced soon. Following his absence from the previous two games due to a hamstring injury, rumors have surfaced regarding the potential timing of a deal.
The three-time First-team All-Pro, who is disgruntled with the Raiders’ lack of success and his inconsistent relationship with the team’s quarterbacks, has stated that he wants to be traded. Adams is looking for a new beginning while being under a five-year, $140 million contract; the New York Jets and New Orleans Saints are apparently interested. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network disclosed on Monday morning that a deal might occur shortly—possibly even today.
“It could be today, could be tomorrow,” Rapoport said on “Good Morning Football.” “That’s how quickly this thing could happen.” Both the Jets and the Saints, who both want improvement at wide receiver, were suggested by Rapoport as possible destinations for Adams.
“Help could be on the way for the New York Jets,” Rapoport wrote. Davante Adams, a wide receiver with the Las Vegas Raiders, has 18 catches this season for 209 yards and a score.

Adams and former Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who is currently with the Jets, are well-known to be close, which has stoked rumors of a potential reunion in New York. However, according to Rapoport, it’s the New Orleans Saints who have been the most active in chasing Adams.
“The Saints have actually been the most aggressive team in talking to the Raiders about Davante Adams,” added Rapoport. “But the Jets are definitely in the mix.” With Adams’ future in jeopardy, everyone is watching the Raiders to see who signs the elite wide receiver.
