Adams automatically became the No. 1 receiver on the free-agent market and an obvious target for his former team, the Green Bay Packers.
In a season split between the Raiders and Jets – teams that went a combined 9-25 in 2024 – Adams caught 85 passes for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns. It marked his fifth consecutive 1,000-yard season; it would have been seven in a row but he finished with 997 yards in 12 games in 2019.
