It appears the New York Jets genuinely interested in Adams, and that makes them different from Dallas.

Rodgers has assured Jets owner Woody Johnson and GM Joe Douglas that he does not want Adams out of New York.

Adams’ Concerns About the Jets’ Future

Adams is keen on linking up with Rodgers again, but he wants to know how long the quarterback intends to be with the Jets. Morever, it is pointed out that Adams doesn’t have a no-trade clause; this means that he can’t decide where he ends up. The Raiders are asking for a second rounder in return and most insiders think the Raiders could possibly have to take a third round pick.

Restricted Free Agency Soon to Begin

New Orleans is another team that could interested in Adams, he could be the missing link for them. Adams also knows the Saints’ quarterback Derek Carr and wide receivers coach Keith Williams well which makes New Orleans attractive for him. Pittsburgh Steelers, who also linked to Brandon Aiyuk at one point, are also in the mix with Raiders to secure Adams with a top trade offer.

Chiefs and Bills Watch Closely the Situation

The Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills are looking at the Adams situation carefully as well. According to one report, both teams are willing to get involved in the proposed deal, but only if the Raiders agree to pay for part of Adams’ salary. They consider Adams as a one-year rental, and they can come in and improve their Super Bowl prospect.

What will the chiefs do at Wide Receiver?

Well, the Chiefs also have issues with their wide receivers too. Rashee Rice has a knee issue and his surgery will be next week to decide whether he’s going to be out for six weeks or more. Rice has been ruled out for the season and possibly the Chiefs may have to search for his replacement if he needs a longer time to recover from surgery.

Will Kansas City Make Another Trade Deadline Move?

Kansas City has also recently completed deadline deals for wide receivers – Kadarius Toney in 2022 and Mecole Hardman in 2023 – that benefited them during their consecutive Super Bowl campaigns. Now that Mahomes is threatened by optionals, the Chiefs may have to take this gamble again if they want another shot at three Super Bowl wins. Possible trade candidates are Amari Cooper, Tee Higgins George Pickens, Christian Kirk, and DeAndre Hopkins.

Stefon Diggs Trade

Then there is the case of wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who said to be the subject of trade talks before he dealt to Houston. There are no hard feelings between him and the Buffalo Bills. While Diggs never asked for a trade, both parties – the player and the Bills – knew that it was time for a change, and Houston was the best option for the outstanding receiver. Sometimes you just have to say it’s time to go in the NFL football world.

Raiders OLB Maxx Crosby Enjoying Return to the Raiders?

At this time of the year, defense outside linebacker Maxx Crosby sat out in the last game due to a high-ankle sprain – his first game he has ever missed in his Raiders career. He has insisted on coming back to the field, particularly with a division game against The Denver Broncos looming. The Raiders will need his services if they want to contain Denver’s rookie quarterback, Bo Nix.

Denver Broncos defense is playing well under Vance Joseph

Last week the Denver Broncos did this to Aaron Rodgers, the Jets are next; Denver Broncos took their best shot from the get go AND blitzed Rodgers on the first play of the game! Their assertive approach to the opponent has been rendering the highest scoring receivers useless all season, all thanks to Patrick Surtain and Riley Moss.

The Browns’ Struggles Go Beyond Watson

The Cleveland Browns’ season hasn’t gone as planned, and while quarterback Deshaun Watson is improving, the team’s defense has plummeted from No. 1 in the NFL football to somewhere in the 20s. The Browns are facing a tough matchup against the Commanders, led by rookie QB Jayden Daniels.

Colts Reap the Benefits of Joe Flacco

Indianapolis Colts have brought in veteran quarterback Joe Flacco in the team after passing on the opportunity to sign him last season. When Anthony Richardson got inaccesptible, Flacco took over and led the Colts to a victory over the Steelers. If Flacco carries on as such, Indianapolis could get stuck when it comes to which quarterback they shall field.

No QB Controversy in Tennessee – For Now

Earlier on in the season the Tennessee Titans are struggling desperately with a 1-3 record. While backup QB Mason Rudolph did well after Will Levis went down, after the game head coach Brian Callahan stated that Levis is still their starting quarterback. However, some think that Rudolph could seize the opportunity the more as the season progresses.

And thus far in the NFL football which is an unpredictable game, injuries, trades, and quarterback controversies are actually the forming factors of the ongoing season. Wait, there is more sleaze yet to be expected and dealt with as teams prepare for the unfoldments of the next moves.
