Sources - Jets, Saints high on Davante Adams' trade wish list - ESPN

Two NFL teams high on Davante Adams' wish list of places to land if he's traded — if not at the very top — are the New York Jets and New Orleans Saints, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

Adams, 31, ideally would like to play with a quarterback he knows, sources told Schefter. The Jets have Aaron Rodgers, Adams' former teammate with the Green Bay Packers. The Saints have Derek Carr, Adams' former teammate at Fresno State and with the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Raiders have informed other teams they would «consider» trading Adams for a package that would include a second-round draft pick and additional compensation, league sources told Schefter on Tuesday.

There also are other teams that remain interested in trading for Adams. Despite any speculation, the Kansas City Chiefs are not expected to be an option, sources told Schefter on Wednesday.

Adams was acquired by the Raiders in a blockbuster trade with the Packers for first- and second-round draft picks on March 17, 2022. Adams agreed to the Raiders trade partly to reunite with Carr but ended up playing only one year with him in Las Vegas as Carr was released by the Raiders after the 2022 season.

Adams played the first eight seasons of his NFL career with Rodgers in Green Bay, during which time he was selected to five Pro Bowls and was a two-time first-team All-Pro. He also was selected to the Pro Bowl and was a first-team All-Pro in his only season with Carr in Las Vegas.

Since being traded to the Jets in 2023, Rodgers has talked glowingly of Adams. The most telling comment came in July at a celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, when he told a reporter, «I love Davante Adams. I can't wait to play with him… again.»
