Is Davante Adams playing tonight? Update on Raiders WR for Week 5 MNF vs Packers 

Las Vegas Raiders receiver Davante Adams is one of the premier wideouts in the NFL. The former Green Bay Packer is a three-time All-Pro selection and six-time Pro Bowler. Adams' availability is vital to the Las Vegas Raiders having a winning record in 2023.

Adams is listed as questionable for Monday's meeting against his former franchise, the Green Bay Packers but is expected to play, according to Tom Pelissero. That puts a spanner in Josh McDaniels' plans, as Adams is arguably the most important player on the Raiders' roster.

What happened to Davante Adams?

Davante Adams seemingly tweaked his shoulder during his team's Week 4 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers. Adams hauled in eight catches for 75 yards in what was his worst showing since Week 1.

After the game, Adams missed team practice on Thursday and Friday. However, he got in a limited session on Saturday, easing some concerns about his Week 5 status despite his "questionable" tag.

Adams is known for his durability on the gridiron, as the perennial Pro Bowler hasn't missed a regular season game since 2021. However, his limited status in training this week has raised some eyebrows.

Aside from the apparent worry in the Raiders' camp, Davante Adams' availability is being closely monitored by fantasy football players. The reason is that Adams is one of the most reliable fantasy wide receivers, thanks to his consistency and durability on the gridiron.

When will Davante Adams return from injury?

The Raiders are expected to have both Jimmy Garoppolo and Davante Adams suit up for the crunch-time matchup.

The Raiders will need all the help that they can get as they aim to snap a three-game losing streak. Josh McDaniels' side has yet to win since its Week 1 win over Sean Payton's Denver Broncos. Since then, they've been defeated by the Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Chargers.

To exacerbate matters, the Raiders didn't look like they were going to get results in any of those games. Hence, the team would need to step up if they plan on making the postseason in 2023. It all starts with their home game against the Green Bay Packers in Week 5.
