Jets adding WR Davante Adams in trade with Raiders

Another day, another prayer answered for Aaron Rodgers.

Monday night, former Green Bay teammate Allen Lazard caught a Hail Mary pass at the end of the first half if the New York Jets’ loss to the Buffalo Bills.

On Tuesday, the team added another former Packer receiver, acquiring Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders.

Per ESPN.com:

The Las Vegas Raiders will receive a conditional third-round draft pick that could improve to a second-round selection, sources told Schefter. For the pick to improve to a second-rounder, Adams must be a first- or second-team All-Pro this season or be on the Jets’ active roster for the AFC Championship Game or Super Bowl, the sources said.

Adams flew into the Big Apple overnight and needed to pass a physical for the trade to be official. He has missed multiple Raiders games due to a tender hamstring.

From 2014 to 2021, Rodgers and Adams combined for 615 completions, 7,529 yards and 68 touchdowns.
