In return, the Jets would offer a conditional third-round pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, and it could become a second-round pick. All this, however, is conditional on a medical examination, said these people, who requested anonymity to speak with the AP on Tuesday since the two teams have still not confirmed anything.
Adams, who is 31, would provide a major boost to the Jets’ offense, which has been erratic so far this season. He would join Garrett Wilson in New York, which would allow Rodgers to count on two leading space forwards. These would strengthen the Jets’ attack, which also counts on wide ends Mike Williams, Allen Lazard and Xavier Gipson, tight end Tyler Conklin and running backs Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.
Adams, who has missed the Raiders’ last three games with a hamstring injury, has asked the Raiders to be traded – and the Nevada team has made no secret that it is inclined to respect his wishes.
And now he would be back with Rodgers, the quarterback with whom he had his moments of glory during eight seasons with the Green Bay Packers.
