When Las Vegas Raiders acquired Davante Adams from the Green Bay Packers, many thought of this team to fight amongst the best-lot since the initial weeks. However, the reality was the opposite, the Chargers got off to a horrible start. They have only managed to register 2 wins out of the first six games in the 2022-23 season.
Even then, this team hopes about making a strong comeback behind their marquee wide receiver Davante Adams, who is still questionable for the game against New Orleans Saints. To those who are unaware, he is still dealing with a very bad flue, yet the team is hopeful that their star Wide Receiver can make a comeback into the side, despite missing practice for the second day in a row.
To talk about the individual stats of Davante Adams, at this point in the 2022-23 season. He has caught 37 catches for 509 years with five TouchDowns. Moreover, he caught 8 passes for 95 yards in the Week 7 win over Houston Texans.
How important is Davante Adams to the Raiders?
“He’s a unicorn, that’s what I’ve said since we got him,” Head Coach Josh McDaniels said when asked about Davante Adams’ skillset on Friday, as per Yahoo.com. “He’s a very smart player, very cerebral. Learns really quickly. If you tell him something, five seconds later, he can pretty much do it. So, very unique player. Very unique player.”
Especially with the Las Vegas Raiders struggling to make a strong impact in the current season – they are currently placed 3rd in the AFC West. Time seems to be on the opposite side for Davante Adams, Raiders as if they are to make a strong bid for the playoffs, they need to pick up pace sooner rather than later.
