Trouble in Sin City: The saga of Davante Adams

How It All Started…

It was the trade heard around the league. if you aren’t familiar with the story of the Davante Adams trade, it’s a doozy. On October 15th, former Las Vegas Raiders star wide receiver Davante Adams was traded to the New York Jets to play with his former Green Bay Packers teammate Aaron Rodgers. Adams had every intention, as most players do, of bringing a championship to the Raiders, but the feeling wasn’t mutual between him and the front office.

When Adams came to the Raiders, it was because he wanted to play with former Fresno State teammate Derek Carr, but that marriage didn’t last long and eventually Carr moved on to the New Orleans Saints.
