The Raiders have traded for Davante Adams. That much we already knew. But one of the reasons why Adams is out in Green Bay is due to the fact that the Packers didn’t give him a long-term deal.
The Raiders didn’t have any problem doing that. None at all.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Raiders signed Adams to a new five-year deal worth over $28 million per season. That surpasses DeAndre Hopkins, who was the highest-paid receiver in NFL history going into Thursday.
