Pierce vague on Adams’ status with Raiders: ‘I’m just focused on Denver’
With the Raiders and star wide receiver Davante Adams headed toward an imminent breakup, coach Antonio Pierce did his best to sidestep the issue when he spoke to the media Wednesday.
Pierce said Adams continues to rehab from his hamstring injury, and the rest of the Raiders are focused on the Broncos, whom they play Sunday in Denver.
When asked if Adams would be at the Raiders’ facility, Pierce simply said: “He’s supposed to be rehabbing.”
Pierce did not comment on a report that he “liked” a social media post that suggested Adams had played his final game with the Raiders.
“I’m just focused on Denver,” Pierce said.
The Raiders have been calling other teams to gauge interest in trading for Adams, according to multiple sources. Sources have also confirmed that Adams has told the Raiders he would prefer to be traded.
