Social media is reacting to the Las Vegas Raiders and Davante Adams situation

The Las Vegas Raiders and wide receiver Davante Adams appear to be falling by the wayside. There were rumors all summer long, although they were just rumors. Now things are in the foreground.

Adams and the Raiders are on thin ice. Our Aidan Champion reported about it on Tuesday.

We can’t confirm details, but a source told the Las Vegas Raiders on SI that the Raiders wouldn’t be looking to purchase Adams, but it would have to be “a substantial offer to consider,” Champion reported.

“…For most of Adams’ career with the Silver and Black, rumors swirled that the star wideout wanted out. Speculation first began when Adams’ good friend and college teammate Derek Carr was released by the club. Carr was one of the main reasons Adams expressed interest in wanting to go to Sin City in the first place.

Adams has repeatedly denied speculation in the past that he no longer wants to be part of the Raiders. The six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro grew up a Raiders fan.

Of course, such turbulent news about big names in the NFL in 2024 will generate a rich response on social media. Everyone seemed to be concerned about it.

NBA superstar Damian Lilliard, a well-known Raiders fan, wrote: “If the Raiders trade (Davante) for a damn second-round pick, I’m done.”

The Athletic’s Vic Tafur gave his insight.

“The Raiders’ plan was always to address the Davante Adams situation closer to the trade deadline, but that has now been accelerated,” Tafur wrote on X.

One personality wrote: “It’s pretty strange that this hasn’t happened all season when everyone knew they were going to be bad, but now they’ve started 2-2, as good as you could hope for, and he wants out and they are open to moving him.

Josh Dubow of the Associated Press wrote rather coyly about NFL insider Ian Rapaport’s initial report: “I wonder if Antonio Pierce will ‘like’ this tweet.”

The Raiders are focused on their Week 5 opponent, the Denver Broncos. It’s an important matchup against a bitter division rival. The game could have a big impact.

The Adams news is certainly an unwelcome distraction, and it will be interesting to see if Pierce, a guardian of locker room culture, makes a decision sooner rather than later.
