Davante Adams Rumors: Some Raiders Felt WR's Attitude Changed When Minshew Signed

Timothy Rapp

Davante Adams wasn't thrilled with the Las Vegas Raiders' quarterback play during the 2023 campaign. The team's offseason plan at the position heading into 2024 reportedly didn't ease any of his concerns.

According to Albert Breer of SI.com, "Those in Las Vegas thought his attitude toward the team changed back in March, when the team signed Gardner Minshew II. Evidently, that wasn't a good enough quarterback plan."

Adams, who was on the trade block in 2023 but ultimately remained with the Raiders at the time, was traded to the New York Jets last week after requesting to be dealt. His first game with New York on Sunday night didn't exactly go to plan—he was targeted nine times in the 37-15 loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers, catching three passes for 30 yards.

But going from Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to Aaron Rodgers is unquestionably a major upgrade. In that regard, life in the Big Apple should be smoother for Adams.
