Authentic. If there were ever an apt one-word description of Davante Adams’ Las Vegas Raiders introductory press conference on Tuesday, it’s authentic. There was genuine happiness when Adams spoke of fulfilling a dream of donning the Silver & Black.
“I was a Raiders fan my whole life,” Adams said sporting a spiffy all-black outfit that included a sport coat with the Raider logo emblazoned on the inside pocket. “It is a dream to be a Raider, man. It’s a dream come true.”
It’s a dream come true on many fronts. Adams because it’s destiny manifested; Derek Carr because he’s reunited with a wide receiver that he made magic with at Fresno State.
