Even missing their best wide receiver, Davante Adams, the Las Vegas Raiders (2-2) defeated the Cleveland Browns (1-3) 20-16 in Week 4 to return to.500. Despite the fact that the Raiders needed the victory, trade rumours about Adams continued to circulate because of his absence. This summer, there were rumours that Las Vegas might let go of Adams. He wasn’t relocated back then, though, and ESPN insider Adam Schefter doesn’t anticipate that happening today.
Adams hurt his hamstring during practice on Thursday, thus he was ruled out of the match. It is anticipated that this injury will keep him out of the field for weeks at a time, making it unclear when he will be able to return to action. This week, the Raiders managed to win without Adams, but Schefter acknowledges that they would reconsider if that doesn’t hold true in the next games.
Moving on from Adams is clearly not a decision that Las Vegas is ready to make right now, and rightfully so.
The 2024 NFL trade deadline is set for Monday, Nov. 4, which is still a little over a month away. So the Raiders still have plenty of time to assess where their season is heading.
For now, Las Vegas is solely focused on Week 5, when it goes on the road to face its AFC West rival, the Denver Broncos (2-2), who are coming off a much-needed win themselves.
