Davante Adams is set to become a free agent in the coming days, and there is a chance a reunion could be in the works for the star wide receiver.
Adams was informed by the New York Jets on Tuesday that he will be released after the team tried unsuccessfully to trade him. The 32-year-old is expected to draw plenty of interest, and some oddsmakers believe Adams’ former team will try to bring him back.
DraftKings Sportsbook released odds on Tuesday for where Adams might end up heading into 2025. The Green Bay Packers were the heavy favorite at +165. The San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Chargers were next at a distant +550.
Here are the odds for teams that are listed at +1200 or better to sign Adams:
Green Bay Packers +165
Los Angeles Chargers +550
San Francisco 49ers +550
Los Angeles Rams +750
Denver Broncos +1000
Pittsburgh Steelers +1000
New England Patriots +1000
Kansas City Chiefs +1100
Houston Texans +1200
Odds are constantly changing, but the teams that are favored to sign Adams have one very obvious thing in common — they are all expected to be playoff contenders next season.
Adams spent the first eight seasons of his career in Green Bay, where he played with Aaron Rodgers. He had 1,300 or more receiving yards in three of his last four seasons with the Packers.
Adams split time with the Jets and Las Vegas Raiders last season but still finished with 85 catches for 1,063 yards and 8 touchdowns in 14 games. He has five consecutive 1,000-yard seasons and is still capable of playing at an elite level, so he will likely be paid accordingly.
A lot of fans seem to think Adams is destined to wind up with one particular West Coast team, but he should have plenty of options. Perhaps a return to Green Bay will be one of them.
