When Davante Adams waved goodbye to the Empower Field at Mile high crowd after hauling in the walk-off touchdown in overtime, it was a culmination of a topsy-turvy type Sunday afternoon.
The Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver vented his frustration late in the third quarter to an official and drew a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. The game was tied at 10 apiece between the Silver & Black and Denver Broncos with neither squad able to snare momentum squarely in their respective corners.
Adams’ vexation didn’t end there, though. After trading field goals, Denver crafted a 16-13 edge before Las Vegas’ offense took the field to answer in the fourth quarter with 3:30 left to play.
