Jets tried to trade for Davante Adams, reunite Raiders star with Aaron Rodgers, per report

The 4-3 New York Jets are winners of 3 in a row after beginning the 2023 season 1-3, however their offense no doubt is not the explanation why: their 18.0 issues per sport ranks them because the twenty sixth scoring offense out of 32 NFL teams whilst their 18.4 issues per sport allowed are the eighth-fewest within the league. Among groups with a profitable file thru seven video games, the Jets have the fewest offensive touchdowns (8) because the 2007 Ravens, the worst third-down conversion fee (23%) because the 2010 Bears and the least environment friendly crimson zone offense because the 2006 Vikings (26% crimson zone landing fee). 

Naturally, Gang Green pursued assist on the trade time limit, and according to ESPN they went for the largest fish supposedly available on the market: Raiders All-Pro extensive receiver Davante Adams.

Had Davis fired the duo in a while after their 26-14 loss towards the Lions on “Monday Night Football” in Week 9, possibly Adams would had been at the transfer. 

Bringing Adams to New York would have handiest strengthened the perception that they’re “Green Bay East” as 8 former Packers are part of the Jets: four-time NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers, offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, extensive receiver Allen Lazard, extensive receiver Randall Cobb, extensive receiver Malik Taylor, offensive take on Billy Turner, quarterback Tim Boyle and protection Adrian Amos. Jets head trainer Robert Saleh even supplies a connection to Packers head trainer Matt LaFleur: Saleh and LaFleur got here up within the NFL in combination, and LaFleur used to be the most efficient guy at Saleh’s wedding ceremony. 

Adams and 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year extensive receiver Garrett Wilson would had been a fantastic dynamic duo for present quarterback Zach Wilson and down the street, Rodgers. Instead, Gang Green will face Adams and Raiders in Week 10 within the wilderness on “Sunday Night Football.”
