Davante Adams Makes Final Decision on Raiders Trade

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams missed last week's game, and it appears as though he may have played his last game in the silver and black uniform. According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, Adams has informed the team that he "preferred to be traded."

Rapoport says, "nothing imminent," but the writing has been on the wall in recent weeks. On Monday, head coach Antonio Pierce liked an Instagram post suggesting that Adams may have played his last down with the Raiders, igniting speculation.

On Tuesday, Adams appeared on the Up and Adams Show and said, "There's been no communication with anybody from the team."

Adams has 18 catches for 209 yards and a touchdown through three games this season. While he's 32 years old now, the three-time All-Pro wideout and six-time Pro Bowler still has plenty left to offer at this point in his career.

In a subsequent tweet, Rapoport said the Raiders are still "trying to win games and there are plenty of scenarios where Davante Adams stays in Las Vegas." Still, he'll have a strong market, and Mike Garofolo reported that this "lays the groundwork for an eventual split."

There will presumably be several potential suitors for Adams among teams looking to compete for the playoffs. According to odds from BetUS Sportsbook, the Jets are the likeliest landing spot at -200 odds. A potential reunion with Aaron Rodgers would make plenty of sense for all parties.

The Chiefs are the next-likeliest team at +400, and they're certainly wide receiver needy, but trading Adams in-division would be a tougher sell for the Raiders' front office.
