Davante Lavell Adams (born December 24, 1992) is an American professional football wide receiver for the New York Jets of the National Football League (NFL). Born in East Palo Alto, California, Adams attended Palo Alto High School where he played football and basketball. He played two seasons of college football for the Fresno State Bulldogs and was named a second-team All-American in 2013 before being selected in the second round of the 2014 NFL draft by the Green Bay Packers.
Early in his career with the Packers, Adams was low in the wide receiver depth chart behind teammates Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb. After being named to his first Pro Bowl in 2017, Adams signed a four-year, $58 million contract extension. For the next four seasons, Adams was the top wide receiver on the team, forming a close bond with quarterback Aaron Rodgers that culminated in leading the league in receiving touchdowns in 2020 and setting career bests in receptions and receiving yards in 2021. During his eight-year tenure with the Packers, Adams only missed 13 games, was named First-team All-Pro two times, and was selected to the Pro Bowl on five occasions.
After contract negotiations failed between the Packers and Adams during the 2022 offseason, he was traded to the Raiders for a first-round and second-round draft pick. Adams then signed a five-year, $141.25 million dollar contract that made him the highest-paid wide receiver at the time. In his first season with the Raiders, Adams led the league in receiving touchdowns and was named to his sixth consecutive Pro Bowl. On October 15th, 2024, Adams was traded to the New York Jets in exchange for a conditional second round pick.

Green Bay Packers
2014–2017
Adams was selected in the second round with the 53rd overall pick by the Green Bay Packers in the 2014 NFL draft.[36] He was the ninth wide receiver to be selected that year.[37] On June 12, 2014, he signed a contract with the Packers.[38]
After playing in the number four receiver slot in his NFL debut in the 2014 season against the Seattle Seahawks, Adams took 37 snaps in the second game against the New York Jets, where he had 5 catches for 50 yards.[39][40][41] Entrenched as the Packers' number three receiver, on October 2, Adams scored his first NFL touchdown on an 11-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers in a 42–10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. The score was Rodgers' 200th career touchdown pass.[42] On October 26, Adams had a personal-best 7 receptions in a loss to the New Orleans Saints.[43] He tallied his first 100-yard receiving game on November 30 with six receptions for 121 yards in a 26–21 win over the New England Patriots.[44] Though a distant third to Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, Adams' 446 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns were a solid rookie contribution to the 12–4 Packers.[45][46] On January 11, 2015, Adams set the Packers' rookie record for receiving yards in a playoff game with 117 in the victory over the Dallas Cowboys, including a 46-yard touchdown.[47][48] In the NFC Championship against the Seattle Seahawks, he was held to one reception for seven yards in the 28–22 overtime loss.[49]
Adams started the 2015 season with four receptions for 59 yards in a 31–23 victory over the Chicago Bears.[50] Adams missed three games after an ankle injury in Week 2. On November 8, against the Carolina Panthers, he had seven receptions for a season-high 93 yards.[51] In the following game, he had a season-high 10 receptions for 79 yards in the loss to the Detroit Lions.[52] On December 3, in the second divisional game against the Lions, he had his only touchdown of the season in the 27–23 victory.[53] His second season was a "dud",[54] finishing fourth on the team in receptions (50) and receiving yards (483), with 1 touchdown, all for a team without star Jordy Nelson.[55][56] However, his efforts preparing for 2016 earned him the unofficial "off-season MVP" award.[54]
His work-ethic paid off, as Adams recorded five touchdowns through his first six games in the 2016 season.[57][58][59][60][61] On October 26, Adams was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week after catching 13 passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns against the Bears in Week 7.[62][63] He topped this total with a Packers' season-best 156 yards in a 47–25 road loss against the Tennessee Titans.[64] On November 28, against the Philadelphia Eagles, he had 113 yards and two touchdowns in the 27–13 victory.[65] Adams finished as the Packers' second-leading receiver with 997 yards on 75 catches for 12 touchdowns (as well as second in the NFL only to teammate Jordy Nelson).[66][67] Adams began the post-season with eight receptions including a touchdown, and the 13th-most post-season receiving yards in Packers history with 125 in a win over the New York Giants.[68][69] He added 76 yards in the division win over the Cowboys, and a touchdown in the NFC Championship loss to the Atlanta Falcons.[70][71]
Adams began the 2017 season with three receptions for 47 yards in a 17–9 home victory over the Seahawks.[72] In Week 2, in a 34–23 loss to the Falcons, Adams had eight receptions for 99 yards, which included a 33-yard touchdown.[73] In the Week 4 game against the Bears, Adams had to be taken to a hospital in an ambulance after a strong helmet-to-helmet hit by Chicago linebacker Danny Trevathan, who earned a 2-game suspension (later reduced to one game).[74] The next week, he returned to record 7 receptions for 66 yards and 2 touchdowns, including the game-winner with 11 seconds left against the Cowboys.[75] Early in Week 6, starter Aaron Rodgers suffered a broken clavicle against the Minnesota Vikings, and would not return for nine weeks.[76] With inexperienced back-up quarterback Brett Hundley, Adams averaged five receptions for 40 yards in three straight losses, before recording 90 yards on five receptions and the eventual game-winning touchdown in a Week 10 win over the Bears. He also went for 126 yards on eight receptions against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11,[77][78] as well as 82 yards, including a season-long 55-yard touchdown, in a 31–28 road loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12.[79][80] After catching only four passes for 42 yards in Week 13 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Adams had his first 10-reception game of the season for another 82 yards, including the game-tying touchdown with 17 seconds left, and a 25-yard walk-off touchdown in overtime, to defeat the Cleveland Browns.[81][82] At that point, he was tied for second in the NFL with 9 receiving touchdowns. In Week 15, Adams suffered another concussion following a helmet-to-helmet hit from Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis. Due to the concussion, Adams missed the final two games of the season. He finished the season starting in 14 games, and was first on the team with 74 catches for 885 yards and 10 touchdowns.[83] He was named to his first Pro Bowl and was ranked 45th by his peers on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2018.[84][85]
On December 29, 2017, Adams signed a four-year, $58 million contract extension with the Packers.[86]
2018–2022
With the return of Aaron Rodgers from injury, Adams had a touchdown reception in each of the Packers' first three games of the 2018 season, while averaging 6.7 receptions for 68 yards.[87] En route to eight receptions for 81 yards in Week 4,[87] Adams suffered a calf injury but continued to play due to more severe injuries to teammates Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison.[88] In Week 5, Adams had nine receptions for 140 yards and a touchdown in a 31–23 loss to the Lions.[89] In a Week 6 Monday Night Football win over the San Francisco 49ers, Adams recorded 10 receptions for 132 yards and two touchdowns, including a 38-yard reception, a 16-yard game-tying touchdown, and two catches for 27 yards to set up the go-ahead field goal, all of which happened in the final three minutes.[90] After a Week 7 bye, Adams had his third consecutive 100-yard game with five receptions for 133 yards in a narrow 29–27 road loss to the Los Angeles Rams.[91] After being limited in yards but recording three touchdowns in his next two games, Adams had a career-best 166 yards on 10 receptions in a Week 11 loss to the Seahawks.[87][92] A week later, in a 24–17 loss to the Vikings, Adams had five receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown.[93] His performance contributed to reaching 1,000 receiving yards in a season for the first time in his career. Adams also scored his tenth touchdown of the season, which gave him his third consecutive season of double-digit receiving touchdowns. He had a touchdown in each of the next two games as well. In Week 15 against the Bears, Adams had eight catches for 119 yards in a 24–17 loss, putting him over 100 receptions in a season for the first time in his career. In Week 16 against the Jets, with the Packers eliminated from the playoffs, Adams had 11 receptions for 71 yards and caught the game-winning touchdown in overtime.[94] Rather than risk worsening a nagging knee injury, Adams sat out the final week of the season, finishing with one reception (111 total) and 133 yards (1,386 total) short of the franchise season receiving records.[95] He was named to his second Pro Bowl,[96] and was ranked 35th by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2019.[97]
During Week 2 of the 2019 season against the Vikings, Adams caught seven passes for 106 yards as the Packers won 21–16.[98] Two weeks later against the Eagles, Adams recorded a career-high 180 yards receiving on 10 receptions, before exiting the game with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter with a turf toe injury.[99][100] The Packers went on to lose 34–27. Adams missed the next four games; he returned to the field during a Week 9 road loss of 26-11 to the Los Angeles Chargers, finishing with seven receptions for 41 yards.[101] In the next game against the Panthers, Adams caught seven passes for 118 yards in the 24–16 victory.[102] After a Week 11 bye, the Packers went on the road to face the 49ers. In that game, Adams caught seven passes for 43 yards, along with his first touchdown of the season and a two-point conversion, accounting for all of the Packers' points in the 37–8 loss.[103] During Week 13 against the Giants, Adams caught six passes for 64 yards and two touchdowns in the 31–13 road victory.[104] Two weeks later against the Bears, he caught seven passes for 103 yards and a touchdown during the 21–13 win.[105] In the next game against the Vikings on Monday Night Football, Adams caught 13 passes for 116 yards in a 23–10 road victory.[106] He finished the season with 83 receptions for 997 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns.[107] He was named to his third consecutive Pro Bowl.[108] In the Divisional Round against the Seahawks, Adams caught eight passes for a postseason-franchise record 160 yards and two touchdowns during the 28–23 victory.[109] In the NFC Championship against the 49ers, he had nine receptions for 138 yards in the 37–20 road loss. In the process, Adams became the only Packer with two games of 100+ receiving yards in a single postseason game coupled with three career postseason games for 125+ receiving yards.[110] He was ranked 57th by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2020.[111]
During Week 1 of the 2020 season against the Vikings, Adams finished with 156 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns on 14 receptions (tying Don Hutson's franchise record) as the Packers won 43–34.[112] During Week 7 against the Houston Texans, Adams finished with 13 catches for 196 receiving yards and two touchdowns as the Packers won 35–20.[113] In Week 8 against the Vikings, he had seven receptions for 53 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns in the 28–22 loss.[114] In Week 9 against the 49ers on Thursday Night Football, he had ten receptions for 173 receiving yards and a touchdown in the 34–17 victory.[115] In Week 11 against the Indianapolis Colts, Adams recorded seven catches for 106 yards and a touchdown during the 34–31 overtime loss.[116] In Week 12 against the Bears, Adams recorded his 500th career catch on a 12-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers, becoming the fifth receiver in Packers history to reach that mark.[117][118] In Week 13 against the Eagles, Adams recorded ten catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns during the 30–16 win. Adams' second touchdown reception was the 400th career touchdown pass thrown by Aaron Rodgers.[119][120] In Week 14 against the Lions, Adams recorded seven catches for 115 yards and a touchdown during the 31–24 win.[121] On December 21, 2020, he was selected for the 2021 Pro Bowl.[122] Despite heavy snowfall, Adams caught 11 passes for 142 yards and three touchdowns in a 40–14 rout of the Titans on Sunday Night Football in Week 16. The outing helped the Adams-Rodgers connection set the new Packers team record of 492 completions which took seven seasons.[123] Overall, he finished the 2020 season with 115 receptions for 1,374 receiving yards and 18 receiving touchdowns.[124] Adams had a historic season in 2020: he led the league in with 18 receiving touchdowns,[125] the most since Randy Moss had 23 in 2007,[126] and tying Sterling Sharpe's single-season franchise record (1994). His 115 receptions also set a franchise best, usurping Sharpe's 1993 season.[127] On January 8, 2021, he made the 2020 All-Pro Team first-team.[128] In the Divisional Round of the playoffs against the Rams, Adams recorded nine catches for 66 yards and a touchdown during the 32–18 win.[129] In the NFC Championship against the Buccaneers, Adams recorded nine catches for 67 yards and a touchdown during the 31–26 loss.[130] He was ranked sixth by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2021.[131]

He then broke the Packers' single season receiving yards record the following week, ending with 1,553 yards in a season.[138] For the fifth consecutive season, he was named to the Pro Bowl.[139] He was selected to the 2021 All-Pro Team for the second consecutive season.[140] In the Divisional Round against the San Francisco 49ers, he had nine receptions for 90 yards in the 13–10 loss.[141] He was ranked seventh by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2022.[142]
On March 8, 2022, the Packers placed a franchise tag on Adams. On March 14, Adams informed the Packers that he would not play under the franchise tag for the 2022 season.[143][144]
Las Vegas Raiders
On March 18, 2022, the Packers traded Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for their 2022 first-round pick (later used to select Quay Walker) and second-round pick.[145] Along with the trade, Adams signed a five-year, $141.25M deal, making him the highest-paid wide receiver in the NFL at the time of the signing.[145] The trade also reunited Adams with his college quarterback Derek Carr, with whom he played at Fresno State from 2012 to 2013.[146]
Adams made his Raiders debut in Week 1 of the 2022 season against the Chargers, where he caught 10 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown in the 19–24 loss.[147] Adams's first win with the Raiders came in Week 4 with a 32–23 victory over the Denver Broncos in a game where Adams had nine receptions for 101 yards.[148] In Week 5, against the Kansas City Chiefs, Adams had three receptions for 124 yards and two touchdowns in the 30–29 loss.[149] After the game, he shoved cameraman Ryan Zebley[150] to the ground while walking towards the tunnel to exit the field. Adams later apologized to Zebley and said that frustration over the way the game had ended caused him to react rashly.[151] Zebley was hospitalized for his injuries and pressed charges through the Kansas City Police Department. Adams was later charged with misdemeanor assault.[152] On December 21, 2022, Adams was named to his sixth consecutive Pro Bowl.[153] He earned first team All-Pro honors for the third time.[154] He finished the season with 100 receptions, 1,516 receiving yards and a league leading 14 touchdowns.[155][156] His yardage set the Raiders franchise record for most receiving yards in a season.[157] He was ranked 13th by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2023.[158]
