When Davante Adams departed the Green Bay Packers for the Las Vegas Raiders in a blockbuster trade in March 2022, quarterback Jordan Love was entering his third full offseason of backing up quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The 2020 first-round pick hadn't received his chance to shine just yet.
After the trade, Adams immediately signed a five-year contract with the Raiders, giving a vote of confidence to his future with then-Las Vegas quarterback Derek Carr over uncertainty surrounding the Packers' situation under center.
Just over two years later, Carr is in New Orleans, Rodgers is with the New York Jets, and Love looks like one of the NFL's best young quarterbacks in Green Bay.
