Star receiver Davante Adams has reportedly been traded from the Green Bay Packers to the Las Vegas Raiders, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Posted on March 17
In return, the Packers would receive two draft picks in 2022, again according to Schefter.
Adams has already signed a five-year contract with the Raiders.
His contractual situation had been a source of conflict with the Packers for several months. The receiver did not want to receive the label of “franchise player”, in particular, which would have kept him in Green Bay for an additional year following the end of his contract in 2021.
Davante Adams had 1,553 receiving yards in 2021, which ranks him third in the NFL.
He also had 11 touchdowns.
