ESPN's Mina Kimes made a somewhat crazy prediction on the air recently. She believes that Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams will be a member of the Washington Commanders by mid-season.
She thinks his contract is "tradeable," and the Commanders will be "feisty enough" to want to do this.
Adams's current contract does not have a no-trade clause, so the Raiders do not necessarily need his buy-in to make the trade.
On paper, this seems like a viable possibility, but the crazy part of this theory is how Adams spoke about the Commanders in late July. On an episode of "Hot Ones," he openly bashed the Commanders instead of eating a hot wing.
Adams called Washington's fans the worst in the NFL. He also said the city and stadium are terrible.
Would the Commanders want Adams knowing that he said those derogatory things? Adams is entitled to his opinion, but the Commanders may not want that negativity in the locker room especially with Jayden Daniels, a rookie QB1, trying to get off on the right foot in his NFL career.
