In the ever-evolving saga of Davante Adams’s potential trade, the Las Vegas Raiders are still holding on to their star receiver, leaving his future uncertain. Despite Adams’s request for a trade almost two weeks ago, no deal has been made to move him off the Raiders’ roster, leaving many wondering where he will ultimately end up.
Speculation has been swirling about potential landing spots for Adams, with the New Orleans Saints among the rumored teams interested in acquiring him. However, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the New York Jets may now be the frontrunners for Adams’s services.
“One connected source involved said, ‘Sorta feels like Jets or bust right now,'” Garafolo revealed, shedding light on the current situation surrounding Adams’s potential trade.
While discussions between the Raiders and Jets have taken place, the firing of Jets head coach Robert Saleh has thrown a wrench into the trade talks. This internal upheaval within the Jets organization has put a halt on any progress towards a deal for Adams.
“Maybe now it’s going to depend on what happens Monday night with the Jets-Bills game. If the Jets win, they’re in first place and they might say ‘Hey, here’s the final piece,'” Garafolo speculated on The Insiders. “In fact, one connected source involved said, ‘It sort of feels like Jets or bust right now.'”
Compensation is also a key factor in the ongoing trade discussions, as the Raiders are reportedly still looking for a favorable deal in exchange for Adams. The uncertainty surrounding Adams’s future continues to loom large, with the Jets emerging as a potential destination amidst the swirling trade rumors. Will Adams ultimately don the green and white of the New York Jets, or will another team swoop in to secure his services? Only time will tell as the trade deadline approaches.
