The New York Jets are looking to reunite Aaron Rodgers with Davante Adams ahead of the 2024 season, giving their returning quarterback another major weapon on offense.
The Jets looked to bring Adams to the team before the trade deadline last month but were unable to complete a deal, and now could be set to continue their interest in the offseason. The Raiders did not listen to offers before the deadline passed but went on to fire both their head coach and general manager with the team looking to be in rebuild mode - rendering them likely to consider offers for Adams.
The superstar wide receiver would almost certainly be interested in playing for the Jets, having played the best football of his career when with Rodgers. Adams was traded away from Rodgers' Green Bay Packers ahead of the 2022 season, joining the Raiders who have struggled over the past two seasons.

Rodgers felt the loss of Adams himself, having one of his worst statistical years with the Packers before deciding to move on and join the Jets. Adams had joined the Raiders to play with Derek Carr - his former college quarterback at Fresno State along with being one of his close friends, before the team decided to move on from Carr.
While Adams has still put in back-to-back dominant seasons since leaving Rodgers, with wide receiver has played at his best when in his offense - and would give the Jets a huge boost to their offense. Rodgers has regularly named Adams as the most talented receiver he has played with, with the two combining for 70 touchdowns in 109 games.

The veteran quarterback is hoping to make a remarkable comeback this season after being seeing dropping back and passing in the Jets' pregame warmups - while continuing to state that he aims to be back in a few weeks time.
