HENDERSON, Nev. -- Las Vegas Raiders receiver Davante Adams, who has been out with a hamstring injury as well as having requested a trade, is not expected to play Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Allegiant Stadium, sources told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Adams last played for the Raiders in a Week 3 home loss to the Carolina Panthers and was on the sidelines for Las Vegas' Week 4 win against the Cleveland Browns at Allegiant Stadium but has not spoken to local media since Sept. 25.
"It shouldn't take a coach to say something to you to get you fired up and motivated to turn it around," Adams said that day, in the wake of the Panthers loss.
