It appears that new Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams had longed to be in silver and black for quite some time.
According to ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio, the trade that sent Adams to the Raiders was reportedly “several years in the making.”
Florio’s source is none other than David Carr, the brother of current Las Vegas quarterback Derek Carr.
Speaking Wednesday on The Rich Eisen Show, Carr said, “It’s something they’ve tried to make happen for five years now, since Davante signed his contract extension several years ago with the Packers.
