The Raiders are coming off back-to-back victories, but star wide receiver Davante Adams wasn’t integral to either one, and he’s not happy about it.
"I'm sure people are thinking, ‘They won the game, so why is there an issue?'" Adams said Wednesday."When you're a player like me, mentally my benchmark is not wins and losses, it's greatness. So when I go out there, I expect to have that ability to put that on the table and have an influence on the game. That's my purpose for being here.
Adams said his criticisms weren't directed at coach Josh McDaniels and the staff, but that the quarterbacks need to find ways to get him the ball even when he's double-teamed. McDaniels said he agreed that Adams should be a much bigger part of the offense. He said players such as Adams and defensive end"The game is different for them because they've achieved a certain status, and they want to contribute every single time that they're out there as much as they can," McDaniels said."So that's part of them being them. I would never tell them to squash that. been a great leader, a great influence.
