Raiders radio host responds to rumors that Davante Adams could be traded to the Chiefs

Could Davante Adams be traded to the Kansas City Chiefs?

Conventional wisdom says the Raiders would never send Adams to the division rival that has won the last two Super Bowls… right?

“Guess what? That's not true,” The Athletic's Dianna Russini said on the Scoop City podcast this week, responding to rumors that the Raiders wouldn't be willing to trade Adams to a division rival.

“Does this happen often? No,” Russini continued. “But if you're in a position to make the best offer to a team, it can happen, and that's one of those conversations you have in football where there's a very different kind of narrative in the league than outside, right at least outside.” the fans. I always do that because I like to ask that question too, and that’s what I did…I asked both sides.”

One person who is technically “in the league” is radio host “JT the Brick,” and he doesn’t believe any reports that Adams might end up in Kansas City.

He didn't answer Russini directly, but this was JT's response to anyone who suggested the Raiders would send Adams to the Chiefs.

“There are people so stupid that they think Tom Telesco is going to trade him to Kansas City. How stupid do you have to be?” JT said on his radio show Raider Nation on Thursday. “Some people like to correct me. If they want to give up two first-round picks for Devante, I think we could all go to Kansas City (but) that’s not going to happen.”

As some have pointed out in recent days, the Raiders need as many teams as possible interested in Adams, so there's no reason to publicly rule out the Chiefs as a trade option.

But surely the Chiefs would have to turn down any other offer to get Adams.

Unless something changes, the New York Jets seem to be the most likely destination for Adams, and that seems to be the team everyone is focused on right now. The Jets are in London this weekend and trade talks are expected to gain momentum after the weekend.
