About
Davante Lavell Adams (born December 24, 1992) is an American professional football wide receiver for the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League (NFL). He played two seasons of college football for the Fresno State Bulldogs and was named a second-team All-American in 2013 before being selected in the second round of the 2014 NFL draft by the Green Bay Packers. He is the only player in NFL history to lead the league in receiving touchdowns with three different teams.
Early in his career with the Packers, Adams was low in the wide receiver depth chart behind teammates Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb. After being named to his first Pro Bowl in 2017, Adams signed a four-year, $58 million contract extension. For the next four seasons, Adams was the top wide receiver on the team, forming a close bond with quarterback Aaron Rodgers that culminated in leading the league in receiving touchdowns in 2020 and setting career bests in receptions and receiving yards in 2021. During his eight-year tenure with the Packers, Adams only missed 13 games, was named First-team All-Pro two times, and was selected to the Pro Bowl on five occasions.
After contract negotiations failed between the Packers and Adams during the 2022 offseason, he was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders for a first-round and second-round draft pick. Adams then signed a five-year, $141 million contract that made him the highest-paid wide receiver at the time. In his first season with the Raiders, Adams led the league in receiving touchdowns and was named to his sixth consecutive Pro Bowl. He requested a trade during the 2024 season and was dealt to the New York Jets, reuniting him with Rodgers. Adams was released following the season and later signed a two-year deal with the Rams.
