Good afternoon. I'm Dan Kovachievich of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports. The Devante Adams saga really began, if you think about it, if you follow the whole league, several months ago, arguably even early on last season for

the Raiders when he started complaining and he started showing some bad body language and

0:29.6

all those videos emerged of him running these open routes, wide open routes, waving his arms

0:35.9

like this and he couldn't get the football,

0:38.3

that it seemed even then like only a matter of time that he'd want out. Well, guess what?

2:03.6

He couldn't be, but he still gets open.

2:06.6

He still gets open as well as any receiver in the league.

2:10.6

He still makes all the catches.
