NFL insider Adam Schefter also confirmed that Adams is expected to sit out Week 5 against the Denver Broncos, thou🐟gh he might return for Week 6 if his recovery goes well.
In a ♍recent update, Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce said Adams is rehabbing from his injury.

Instead, he pointed out that the team focuses on their game against the Broncos wh🦩ile Adams works on healing.
So, fantꦛasy football players should plan for a𒅌lternatives to Adams.
Two other Raiders receivers, Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker, will likely get more playing tim🐭e with 🅺Adams out.
Meyers has bee𓆉n a reliable option and could perform as a strong WR2, while Tucker is a riskier choice.
Trade Rumors: Will Adams Stay with the Raiders?
Aside from his injury, Davante Adams has also madeꦍ🔥 headlines because he may want to leave the Raiders.
According to ESPN’s Dianna Russini,💞 Adams has asked to be traded, but the Raiders aren’t in a rush to make a deal.
Rumors suggest Adams might want to reunite with൲ his former Green Ba🐭y Packers teammate Aaron Rodgers on the New York Jets.
But as you can expect, this situation creates some complicaꦕtions.
Even if Adams heals quickly, he probably won’t want🅷 to risk playing for the Raiders while trade talks are ongoin𒅌g.
Similarly, 🉐the Raiders wouldn’t want him to get injured before they finalize a deal.
Raiders coach Antonio Pierce also liked a social media post🃏 that hinted Adams may have already played his last game for Las Vegas.
Although Pierce hasn’t spoken directly about the trade rumors, his actions on social media have fueled speculation about Adams’ future.
Who Might Trade for Davante Adams?
As the trade rumors continue, a♑ few teams stand out as possible new homes for Davante Adams.
The Nᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚew York Jets seem to be the most likely option because Adams has a past connection with Jets quarte🔜rback Aaron Rodgers.
And their hi🐟story together in Green Bay could make this a good fit.
Additiona🍰lly, the Dallas Cowboys and Pittsburgh Steelers are intereste൲d in adding Adams to their rosters.
Both teams could use a star wide receiver like A🎃dams to boost their offenses and make a stron♋ger push for the playoffs.
Another team being mentioned is the New Orleans Saints, who could benefit from Adams’s chemistry with their quarterback, Derek Carr, who used to play with Adams on the Raiders.
That said, whoeve𒊎r trades for Adams must consider his contra⛄ct and injury status.
Adams is still unꦡder contract with the Raiders for two more years, with a base salary of $16.89 million.
However, the final two 🅺years of his deal have no guaranteed money, so a trade could mean just one season with Adams unless a n💞ew deal is worked out.
