Jets' Garrett Wilson 'Cool' with Davante Adams Trade Rumors: 'If It Helps Us Win'

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson says it would be "cool" for his team to make a trade to acquire six-time Pro Bowl wideout Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders.

"I feel like it's cool if we get him up here," Adams told reporters on Friday. "Like I always say, if someone can help us win, let's do it."

Adams requested a trade from the Raiders on Monday, per The Athletic's Tashan Reed and Vic Tafur. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Wednesday that the Jets are high on Adams' "wishlist of places to land."

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport similarly reported on Thursday that the Jets would be Adams' preferred trade destination.

According to Schefter, Adams "ideally would like to play with a QB he knows," and the receiver served as a primary target for Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers during his eight seasons with the Green Bay Packers between 2014 and 2021.

Rodgers told reporters on Friday that he "still has a close friendship" with Adams.

"We spent time in the offseason together," Rodgers said. "He's a great guy, and a great player, and the rest of that's out of my hands."

Rapoport noted, however, that Adams "has not demanded" a trade to New York, and that the New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers are other potential trade destinations.

Schefter reported heading into Week 4 that Adams is considered "week to week" with a hamstring injury, so the wideout may not be able to play immediately even after a trade.

When healthy, if Adams does rejoin Rodgers in New York, he would slot into a receiver depth chart currently led by Wilson and Allen Lazard. Running back Breece Hall and tight end Tyler Conklin have so also served as regular targets for Rodgers.

Wilson, who has one receiving touchdown through four games, recently said in an appearance on ESPN Radio's "Bart & Hahn" that he's been working on adjusting to new routes with the Jets this season. The potential addition of Adams would likely lead to further adjustments for Wilson as second-year Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett works to slot in another top receiver for Rodgers.

Sources have told Schefter that the Raiders would think about trading Adams for a second-round draft pick "and additional compensation," according to ESPN's Katherine Terrell.

The Jets currently hold eight picks in the 2025 draft, and their win-now aspirations in Rodgers' potential final season could lead them to deal one for a player who could help them this fall. Jets general manager Joe Douglas will need to decide whether the Jets want to give up that capital, and take on Adams' current cap hit of around $13 million, in order to make the Raiders an offer.
