What should Davante Adams do now?

Now, what is Adams’ future looking like? The big question here is what is Josh McDaniels’ plan after removing Carr? After the removal of a top-15 quarterback, there has to be a solid plan already in place to take over his position for 2023 and it is not Jarrett Stidham. Are there even any free agent veteran quarterbacks available that are better than Carr? It’s possible the answer to that is no also. Since the news broke about Carr Adams has made comments about the team moving forward to finish out the season but he has made no “Raider Nation for Life” comments for us to interpret.

Davante Adams is 30 years old. Is the future Hall of Fame receiver, when he is at the pinnacle of his playing career supposed to start over? Is Adams supposed to go from the beginning stages of teaching a rookie all the nuances of preferred ball placement, how he breaks out of his routes, and then the required hundreds of hours to get their timing down? That is exactly why he left Green Bay; he knew Aaron Rodgers’ time was short and he did not want to start over with Jordan Love. So why would he stay in Las Vegas to do the same? To waste his remaining years teaching instead of scoring?
