Cryptic Davante Adams tweet sends NFL fans into meltdown as Raiders star appears to tease his new team
Davante Adams has seemingly dropped a huge hint over who his next team will be with a cryptic Instagram post on Friday.
The Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver is expected to be traded with a host of potential landing spots at his mercy.
The New York Jets, and a reunion with Aaron Rodgers, had been strongly linked but if Adams’ Instagram story is a clue, he won’t be in the Big Apple.
Adams shared a picture of Edgar Allen Poe, whose poem ‘The Raven’ inspired the name of the Baltimore Ravens.
Adams also shared a quote from Poe: ‘Believe nothing you hear and half of what you see.’
A move to the Ravens would be massive for Baltimore, who started the season among the favorites for Super Bowl glory but have stuttered so far in the first four games of the season.

They lost their opener to Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs and were then surprisingly beaten 26-23 in Week 2 by the Raiders – with Adams scoring a touchdown. The Raiders are also 2-2 for the season.
The 31-year-old Adams reportedly told the Raiders on Monday that he wants to leave, sparking a pursuit across the NFL to get him. The NFL website said earlier this week that he preferred a move to the Jets and to link up with Rodgers again.
Poe did, however, move to New York but he is buried in Baltimore and most closely associated with that City.
Adams played alongside Rodgers at the Green Bay Packers until 2021, when he left for Vegas on a five-year, $141m deal.
The Raiders play the Broncos in Denver on Sunday while the Ravens are in Cincinnati to play the Bengals.
