Davante Adams Signs Record-Breaking Deal with Las Vegas Raiders

5-Year, $140 Million Contract for Elite Wide Receiver

Mega-Trade Brings Adams to Sin City

In a blockbuster move that shook the NFL, superstar wide receiver Davante Adams has signed a historic 5-year, $140 million contract with the Las Vegas Raiders. The deal, signed on March 18, 2022, comes after a blockbuster trade that sent Adams from the Green Bay Packers to the Raiders.

Adams, a two-time All-Pro and three-time Pro Bowl selection, was the Packers' leading receiver for the past four seasons. In 2021, he caught a league-high 123 passes for 1,553 yards and 11 touchdowns. His departure from Green Bay marks a significant loss for the Packers, who are now without their top target for quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

For the Raiders, the acquisition of Adams is a major coup. The team has been in desperate need of a top-tier wide receiver, and Adams fills that void perfectly. With his exceptional route-running ability, ability to create separation, and sure hands, Adams is expected to be a key piece in the Raiders' offense for years to come.
