Six-Time Pro Bowl Wide Receiver Inks Deal with the Rams

This past season was one to forget for the New York Jets. Coming into last season, the Jets looked like a playoff-caliber team. Then, New York traded for six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Davante Adams and things looked like they were just starting to look up, especially with being paired up with his former quarterback Aaron Rodgers. However, the Jets could not get in the right direction and do what was needed in order to climb up the AFC East standings. New York finished with a 5-12 record. With the Jets and Rodgers looking to part ways, it was announced on March 4th that New York will be releasing Adams. Today, it was announced that the six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver signed a two-year deal, worth $46 million with the Los Angeles Rams.

Adams was selected as the 53rd overall pick during the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. After spending the first eight years of his career with the Packers, the 32-year-old wide receiver was traded from the Packers to the Las Vegas Raiders. If Adams thought his time in Green Bay wasn’t memorable enough, it certainly wasn’t while he was a part of the Raiders. He spent two and a half seasons with the Raiders before ultimately being moved to the Jets.

During 14 total games with both the Raiders and Jets, Adams accumulated 1,063 receiving yards and had eight touchdowns. On December 15th, in a matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Adams recorded nine receptions with 198 receiving yards during a 32-25 victory. With the Rams, the six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver will try to obtain the one thing he’s been missing during his illustrious career, that being a Super Bowl championship. One potential Super Bowl championship could drastically change Adams’ future Hall of Fame chances.
