Davante Adams' NSFW rant on Raiders sideline goes viral after WR's improper utilization - “I hate this f*king bulls*t”

In 2022, Davante Adams got himself a trade to the Las Vegas Raiders, signing a then-record five-year, $141.25-million extension. He was very elated at the time, as it meant a reunion with Derek Carr, his teammate at Fresno State.

Alas, the reunion would last just that season. While the former Green Bay Packer once again led the NFL in receiving touchdowns and broke the franchise record for single-season receiving yards, the team struggled. They benches their quarterback well before the final week and missed the playoffs at 6-11.

During the offseason, the Raiders made a big gamble, replacing Carr, long the face of the franchise, with Jimmy Garoppolo, who had become expendable in the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback hierarchy.

The initial thought was that having a former Super Bowl finalist under center would truly unlock his new Adams' potential.

However, the experiment has gone horribly wrong, as brutally shown during Monday night's 26-14 loss at the Detroit Lions. Garoppolo was sacked six times and intercepted once, while Adams notoriously was targeted exactly once for an 11-yard catch.

As the game neared its end, cameras caught the six-time Pro Bowler throwing a fit and yelling:

“I hate this f—king bulls—t”

Which teams could be viable trade destinations for Davante Adams?

There is one silver lining in this scenario for Davante Adams, who said after the game:

“I wish I had the words to say something that's not going to get blown up in the media and taken out of context."

Less than 24 hours from now, it will be the trade deadline. It has been rumored for weeks that the top wideout could be on the move this season amidst his frustrations with a lack of targets.

The most viable destination for him would be the New York Giants, who desperately need a top wideout if they want to repeat their shocking 2022 run to the Divisional Round. Their most credible passing option so far is tight end Darren Waller, who while good is not a deep-ball threat.

There are also the Tennessee Titans and Atlanta Falcons, who need a better WR2 to complement DeAndre Hopkins and Drake London respectively.
