After reportedly requesting a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders, the asking price for Davante Adams has reportedly been revealed, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Raiders would “consider” such a move for a package around a second-round pick and other compensation.

Tuesday afternoon, NFL Network reported Adams informed the Raiders he “preferred” to be traded. The news comes as his future came into question in Las Vegas, especially after head coach Antonio Pierceliked” an Instagram post about the star receiver potentially playing his last snap with the Raiders.

Adams is in his third season with the Raiders after coming over via trade from the Green Bay Packers in 2022. He signed a five-year, $140 million extension with Las Vegas and has three years remaining. He did not suit up against the Browns as he dealt with a hamstring injury.

Through three games this season, Adams has 18 receptions for 209 yards and a touchdown after an up-and-down 2023 season. He turned in his lowest production since 2019, totaling 1,144 yards and eight touchdowns as the Raiders struggled.

Davante Adams: ‘I haven’t talked’ to Antonio Pierce since Instagram like

Questions about Adams’ future in Vegas further grew after Pierce appeared to “like” an Instagram post. It included a screenshot of a post from Sports Illustrated’s Michael Fabiano telling fans not to be surprised if Adams played his last snap with the Raiders.

During an appearance with Kay Adams on FanDuel’s Up and Adams, Davante Adams said he hadn’t spoken with Pierce since the post went viral. Instead, he didn’t want to “stir the pot.”

“I haven’t heard from [Pierce]. I haven’t talked to him,” Adams said. “Don’t really know exactly what that was about. … It’s one of those situations where I just keep my head down and keep doing my thing and let the chips fall where they may. There’s been no communication with anybody from the team since that became a thing. But it’s kind of just like the weekly, ‘What’s up with Tae?’ thing. It’s always some sort of drama. But, at the end of the day, 17 doesn’t create any of it.

“So, people can say what they want, but I’m just chilling and trying to be the model for not stirring the pot and just locking in and doing what I got to do.”
