'You've Got To Ask Davante That' - Antonio Pierce Has No Idea Why Davante Adams Wants To Be Traded, Clearly Sick Of The Situation

Status quo? I, uh, don't think that's how it works. You have a star wide receiver who is sitting out games with injuries/wants to be traded. You have a wide receiver who has made it clear he wants to be traded and everyone in the world sitting there waiting for the Jets to do it. But, I do agree. We should be able to ask Davante Adams why he wants to be traded. Pretty sure we can figure it out - he went to the Raiders to play with his close friend Derek Carr. You may know Derek Carr is now the quarterback for the Saints, slightly different team there. You may also want to know that Antonio Pierce has no idea who the Raiders quarterback is: 

Yeah, I'd say that's probably a good starting point as to why Davante Adams wants to be traded. I get it. People in all of sports are sick of guys asking for trades because shit goes sideways. This is happening here, but he went there to mostly play with Carr again. He had the Jimmy G experience, football AOC and Gardner Minshew. Not exactly the ideal quarterback group you want to play with when you're trying to win some games. He also could have, you know, just stayed in Green Bay. Now the Raiders want a 2nd round pick and that seems out of reach: 

It's going to be a story until Adams is traded and opens up about the whole experience here. It's how the NFL works, it's how sports work. You also throw in that everyone likes to make fun of the Raiders and it's going to blow up even more. But I'm pretty sure we all know why Adams wants to be traded.
