Las Vegas Raiders owner Mark Davis was able to turn lemons into lemonade in the wake of Davante Adams being traded to the New York Jets on Tuesday.

Speaking to reporters during the NFL owners meetings in Atlanta, Davis joked that the Raiders traded Adams in exchange for Tom Brady and a 2025 third-round draft pick.

The Raiders' actual compensation for Adams was a conditional third-round pick. Brady entered into the equation later in the day when he was approved by the other owners to become a limited partner as part of the Raiders' ownership group.
