During a conversation with Kay Adams on the Up & Adams Show, Davante Adams said that his current hamstring injury is not worse than the one he suffered while playing for the Packers in 2020.

He missed two games with that injury, which means he will probably be healthy enough to play in Week 5. However, now that the Raiders are looking to trade Adams, there is a possibility that the team might not risk playing him and keep him healthy so that a potential deal does not fall through.

As of now, nothing can be determined regarding Adams' status for Week 5. Based on all the reports, the likelihood of him playing another game for the Raiders is quite low.

The Raiders have already reached out to other teams to know about their interest in the wide receiver and are reportedly looking for a trade package consisting of a second-round pick and additional compensation.

Adams has 18 catches for 209 yards and a touchdown on 27 targets in three games this season.
