Nobody was happier than Davante Adams after Raiders’ win over Jets
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams was ecstatic Sunday after his team’s win over the New York Jets.
The Raiders outlasted the Jets in an ugly 16-12 affair at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nev.
Raiders linebacker Robert Spillane intercepted a pass from Jets quarterback Zach Wilson with just over a minute left to seal the victory.
Las Vegas, which was leading 16-12 at that point, was able to make all the necessary stops late to hold on for their fifth win of the season.

Adams recently went viral for comments that appeared to be shading former head coach Josh McDaniels.
Now under interim head coach Antonio Pierce, the Raiders appear fully motivated to get back in the playoff hunt.
The win over the Jets bumped up the Raiders’ record to 5-5. Las Vegas is currently one of several teams in the AFC playoff bubble.
