    Raiders Linebacker Robert Spillane Gives His Take on the Davante Adams Trade Saga

    By Elijah Grayson Murray,

    Davante Adams officially burned the Raiders bridge when he requested a trade, and Raiders' linebacker Robert Spillane echoed the sentiment of the fanbase during his latest appearance on SiriusXM's NFL Radio.

    Spillane was asked about how the team is dealing with all the noise that comes with a potential Adams trade, and he had a very measured yet staunch response to the situation.

    "We wish Davante the best, but at the end of the day we're focused on guys who show up every day, come into practice willing to work, willing to do whatever it takes to somehow get a victory this weekend," Spillane said .

    "We're a next man up mentality and we expect the guys that will replace Davante to step up and make big-time plays this weekend," he continued.

    Through three games this season, Adams has snagged 18 receptions for 209 yards and a touchdown, and Raider Nation seems to be fed up with the former second-round pick and the drama that has ensued.

    The Jets, Ravens, and Steelers seem to be the front-runner trade-partners for the 31-year-old wideout, and the Raiders could possibly get a second-round draft pick and a younger wide receiver in return which could potentially lead to the formation of a dynamic duo in Vegas next season should the Raiders target their new franchise quarterback in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
