Oct 15, 2024, 02:25 PM

The New York Jets have agreed to acquire star wide receiver Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders in a blockbuster trade that reunites Adams with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Jets will receive Adams in exchange for a conditional third-round pick that could become a second-round pick if certain conditions are met, such as Adams earning first- or second-team All-Pro honors or the Jets reaching the AFC Championship game or Super Bowl. The Jets are assuming the remainder of Adams' contract, including the prorated $11.67 million salary for 2024, with non-guaranteed totals of $36.25 million in each of the next two years. Adams is already in the Jets' facility to finalize the deal. A six-time Pro Bowl selection, Adams previously formed one of the most prolific quarterback-receiver duos with Rodgers during their time together in Green Bay, recording 622 receptions, over 7,500 receiving yards, and 69 touchdowns. The move aims to bolster the Jets' offense and revive their season prospects.
