HENDERSON, Nev. — For much of his time with the Las Vegas Raiders, Davante Adams’ happiness has been constantly scrutinized. In his two seasons, they’ve posted just a 14-19 record, changed their coach and general manager, and are now set to start their fifth quarterback.
That’s kept the rumor mill about the receiver’s long-term status with the franchise churning, and he’s gotten used to it — to the point where he typically ignores it. A comment made by former NFL receiver DeSean Jackson on “The Herd” last month, however, set him off. Jackson said he spoke to Adams directly and stated that “he is unhappy.”
When asked about it, Adams was adamant that the conversation never happened.
“At the end of the day, the facts are the facts and that is not a fact,” Adams said Wednesday. “I’ve probably spoken to DeSean Jackson maybe three or four times in my life and I never had a conversation about him ever. And I put that on my kids. I’ve never spoken to him about anything. The only person I really talk to about my feelings in general is my wife, probably, and she ain’t out there leaking anything and dropping stuff like that in the team.
“So, once again, whatever you see, if it ain’t from the horse’s mouth, it’s probably bulls—.”
Don’t believe…
