The Ravens showed little interest in acquiring Davante Adams from the Raiders, but thanks to the NFL playoff format, they could see the All-Pro wide receiver again this season.
John Harbaugh has made it clear that he likes his wide receiver group, and although it’s been fun fantasizing about Davante Adams in the Ravens offense, it won’t be happening.
On Tuesday morning, the Raiders traded Adams to the New York Jets for a third-round pick. The Jets are 2-4 after a 23-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football.
It’s a conditional 3rd rounder going to the #Raiders. https://t.co/2eFVyYkbyj

The Ravens are coming off a game in which Zay Flowers had nine catches for 132 yards (14.7 avg) and hauled in all nine of his targets.
Baltimore got an up-close look at Adams in a Week 2 loss to the Raiders, as the star wide receiver went for 110 yards and one touchdown on nine catches and 12 targets.
He’ll remain in the AFC and join a team that could see Baltimore in the postseason.
