Adams spent the first eight seasons of his NFL career with the Green Bay Packers before he was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders prior to the 2022 season. After two-plus seasons with Las Vegas, Adams then was traded to the New York Jets midway through the 2024 season, reuniting with former Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
In 14 games with the Raiders and Jets last season, Adams recorded 85 receptions for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns.
