Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams will miss his second straight game on Sunday due to a "real, legitimate hamstring injury" and not because of his reported trade request, ESPN's Adam Schefter said Thursday on SportsCenter.

That injury could make it more difficult for the Raiders to find a trade destination for Adams ahead of the Nov. 5 deadline, according to Schefter.

"It's not simple to execute a big deal, especially when the wide receiver like Davante Adams is nursing a real, legitimate hamstring injury that's expected to prevent him from playing Sunday against the Denver Broncos," Schefter said.
