Davante Adams got his wish earlier this week when the Las Vegas Raiders sent him to the New York Jets, reuniting the All-Pro wide receiver with quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
It was reported earlier this month that Davante Adams requested a trade from the Raiders, with the Jets and New Orleans Saints on his wish list. The defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs were also linked to Adams, and it made sense on paper given the injuries to Rashee Rice and Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown.
But during an appearance on Kay Adams’ “Up & Adams” program on FanDuel TV, the 31-year-old gave a short and sweet explanation as to why Patrick Mahomes Chiefs didn’t win the sweepstakes. It’s simply because Adams didn’t want to go there.
“Negative,” Adams said when asked if Kansas City was on his wish list. “That was talked about, I don’t want to say anything crazy, but the Chiefs weren’t on the list.”
