Dianna Russini reports that the Steelers are interested in trading for Raiders WR Davante Adams.
Russini adds that the two sides have had discussions about a potential trade and are keeping an open line of communication.
The situation involving Adams continues to evolve, with several teams interested in a trade for the veteran receiver including the Jets, Saints, Cowboys, Steelers, and Bills.
It appears that Las Vegas is ready to trade Adams, who has requested a trade from the team after months of speculation, for a package involving a second-round pick and more.
Adams, 31, is a former second-round pick out of Fresno State by the Packers in the 2014 NFL Draft. He was in the final year of a four-year, $3.933 million rookie contract when the Packers signed him to a four-year extension worth $58 million.
Adams made a base salary of $12 million for the 2021 season and was set to be an unrestricted free agent in 2022 when the Packers used the franchise tag on him at a figure of $20.2 million. He was then traded to the Raiders for a first and second-round draft pick in 2022.
The Raiders also signed Adams to a five-year, $140 million contract as a part of the trade, including nearly $66 million guaranteed. He’s due base salaries of $16.89 million and $35.64 million over the next two seasons.
In 2024, Adams has appeared in three games and recorded 18 receptions for 209 yards (11.6 YPC) and one touchdown.
