Did Davante Adams Get Traded?

Davante was traded by the Raiders to the New York Jets in October 2024. Before the trade was announced, the move was widely debated on social media — especially after Raiders coach Antonio Pierce noticeably “liked” then “unliked” a Sports Illustrated Instagram post about Davante possibly playing his final game with the Raiders in early October.

In response, Davante noted that he hadn’t “heard from” nor “talked to” Antonio at the time during an interview on the “Up & Adams Show with Kay Adams.”

“Social media is a beast, so it’s a lot of people out there that saw it and wondering what’s going on and reaching out,” the NFL player said. “All I can control is this talk we’re having right here, and after we’re done with this, all I can control is the next thing that I’m on to.”
