It seems as if ever since Davante Adams joined the Las Vegas Raiders, rumors have been popping up about his potential departure.
Despite his individual success, the Raiders as a whole have struggled to pick up wins and have yet to make the playoffs.
Not helping the situation is that Adams has had no issues speaking up about things that he is not a fan of with the Raiders.
Adams discussing moves or strategies he was not a fan of led many to feel he was frustrated and was looking to leave the Raiders.
Even though Adams has said many times that he wants to be a Raiders, and GM Tom Telesco has said the team isn’t moving him, it hasn’t stopped many from speculating and teams from calling.

It shouldn’t still need to be said, but obviously, Adams felt the need to re-iterate his desire to remain with the Raiders.
Whether or not this will stop the rumors is unknown, but he can’t possibly be more clear about being happy where he is.
