Raiders GM Tom Telesco put an end to rumors at the NFL scouting combine in February that star wide receiver Davante Adams might be traded. “He’s part of the Raiders,” Telesco stated.
However, speculation about Adams’ future in Las Vegas has persisted, prompting his representatives to issue a statement last month to ESPN calling it “unfounded speculation.”
Adams himself is focused on the upcoming season with the Raiders, who started their first training camp practice on Wednesday. “I approach life with a fresh mindset,” Adams said. “Last year had its challenges, but I’m ready for a new beginning.”
The Netflix documentary series “Receiver” highlighted Adams’ frustrations during the previous season. He was one of five players followed by the series, showing both the highs and lows on and off the field.
After coach Josh McDaniels was fired and Antonio Pierce took over as interim coach, Adams supported the decision to bench Garoppolo in favor of rookie Aidan O’Connell. Under O’Connell, the Raiders finished with a 5-4 record in the second half of the season.
Adams confirmed that the documentary accurately portrayed his and the team’s journey. Adams shared his thoughts on the documentary, emphasizing the genuine emotions captured during challenging times for the team.
“It showed our highs and lows authentically,” Adams said. “While it’s a TV show and has its narratives, it accurately reflected how I and the team felt.”
“Now, I’m in a positive place,” Adams continued. “I’m excited about what lies ahead and today was a great start for us.” Coach Pierce briefly commented on the documentary, stating there’s no need to dwell on it moving forward
