Derek Carr once said he would try to recruit Davante Adams to Vegas

Few will be more excited about the Las Vegas Raiders’ acquisition of Davante Adams than quarterback Derek Carr. In fact, we already know, because Carr dropped a hint about it before.

Carr and Adams were teammates for two years at Fresno State and will now be reunited after the Raiders pulled off a blockbuster trade for the wide receiver on Thursday. That fulfills Carr’s long-term goal, as the quarterback made no secret that he wanted to play with Adams again. In an appearance on “The Cris Collinsworth Podcast” last July, Carr said Adams was one of his best friends, and that he would do a “full-court press” on the receiver once he became a free agent in a bid to get Adams to Las Vegas.
