Davante Adams is off to the Big Apple. The Las Vegas Raiders traded the star wide receiver to the New York Jets, who confirmed the trade Tuesday. This comes after the relationship between Las Vegas and Adams fractured in recent weeks, leading to the wideout reportedly telling the team that he would prefer to be traded. All that has led to Adams, in fact, being moved and now joining Aaron Rodgers and the Jets.
As for the compensation, the Raiders will receive a conditional third-round pick that can become a second-round pick based on performance, according to ESPN. The pick becomes a second if either of the following happen: Adams makes first- or second-team All-Pro, or he’s on the active roster for the AFC Championship or Super Bowl.

Las Vegas is also not paying any of Adams’ remaining salary with the Jets reportedly now assuming the balance. As former agent and current CBS Sports salary cap expert Joel Corry notes, New York will pick up the remaining $11.59 million on Adams’ deal. This season, Adams has a base salary of $16.69 million and $330,000 in roster bonuses, so New York will assume roughly 66% of that remaining money. The Raiders will also now have $15.7 million in dead cap money instead of a $44.1 million salary cap charge for him next season.
