Davante Adams Rumors: Raiders WR Out vs. Broncos with Injury amid Trade Buzz

Amid ongoing trade rumors, Davante Adams will miss his second consecutive game.

The Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver is expected to be out against the Denver Broncos on Sunday while dealing with a hamstring injury, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The 31-year-old also missed last week's contest against the Cleveland Browns with the same injury, which he suffered in practice.

According to The Athletic's Dianna Russini, teams in trade talks with the Raiders have been informed Adams is expected to be sidelined for one to two weeks. He's expected to miss Sunday's game but could be back on the field next week if there are no setbacks.

Adams informed the Raiders on Tuesday that he would prefer to be traded, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, potentially marking the beginning of the end to his time in Las Vegas.

Before the trade request, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that the Raiders were "growing open" to the idea of trading the six-time Pro Bowler and had started contacting teams to gauge interest.

Schefter reported after the trade request that Las Vegas would "consider" a package that includes a second-round pick and additional compensation.

The severity of Adams' injury could be a factor in how fast he gets moved from the Raiders. Schefter reported on Saturday that a source said "wide receivers and hamstring injuries are not a good combination."

If Adams only has to miss a pair of games with the problem, it likely wouldn't take a toll on his trade value compared to an injury that could linger throughout the season.

The Fresno State product, in his 11th NFL season and third with the Raiders, has just 209 receiving yards and a touchdown to start the season amid Las Vegas' offensive struggles. Though last season was a down year for him, he still had 1,144 receiving yards and eight touchdowns, marking his fourth consecutive season with 1,000 or more receiving yards.

The Raiders will miss Adams on Sunday as they look to get past a divisional rival, but the contest could be a glimpse into a future without the star receiver should he be traded this year.
