Davante Adams has been at the center of trade rumors since joining the Las Vegas Raiders, particularly after the departure of quarterback Derek Carr, who was a major reason for Adams’ move west. Despite expressing satisfaction with the Raiders, Adams’ frustrations during a challenging season fueled speculation about his future. A strong finish under interim head coach Antonio Pierce temporarily quelled these rumors, but with new general manager Tom Telesco in charge, Adams’ future remains uncertain. If the Raiders start the 2024 season slowly, Telesco might consider trading Adams for future assets. Teams like the Los Angeles Rams, known for trading first-round picks for veteran stars, could be potential suitors. Despite inconsistent quarterback play, Adams posted impressive stats last year, and his career numbers remain stellar, making him a valuable asset in the trade market.

Love threw for over 4,000 yards and more than 30 touchdowns, bringing the team within three points of the NFC Championship game. For the Packers to become serious Super Bowl contenders this season, maintaining player health will be crucial. One of Love’s key targets from last year has some work ahead to be ready for the new season.

Packers tight end Tucker Kraft tore his pectoral muscle while bench pressing this offseason. The injury will keep him out of training camp as he recovers from surgery. Kraft explained to Bill Huber of Packers Central, “It was my last rep of the day on bench. Nothing crazy, not heavy weight. We were speed-benching and it just popped right off the bone.” This type of injury is commonly caused by bench pressing.
