The Las Vegas Raiders have finally found a trade partner for Davante Adams. Ian Rapoport reported on Tuesday that the Raiders are trading Adams to the New York Jets. In return, the Raiders will receive a conditional third-round pick that could become a second-rounder based on performance.
Adams informed the Raiders two weeks ago that he’d prefer to be traded and Las Vegas has been working to find a team willing to meet the asking price. The Raiders were reportedly seeking a second-round pick in exchange for Adams, so this deal could net Las Vegas a second-rounder if he plays well in New York.
Adams, 31, has missed the last three games with a hamstring injury. He has just 18 catches for 209 yards and one touchdown this season, his third year with the Raiders.
It’s a conditional 3rd rounder going to the #Raiders that can become a 2nd rounder based on performance.

In New York, Adams will reunite with Aaron Rodgers, who he was teammates with from 2014-2021.
During their time together, Adams was a Pro Bowler five times from 2017-2021, earning two first-team All-Pro selections in the process.
