Adams has jumped near the top of our list because he’s available for a price and is actively looking for a new team. According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, the six-time Pro Bowler has informed Las Vegas that he would prefer to be traded.

However, Adams doesn’t quite claim our top spot for a few reasons. He’ll turn 32 in December, he’s dealing with a hamstring injury, he won’t come cheaply, and his contract situation beyond the 2024 season gets complicated.

That said, Adams is a legitimate difference-maker when he’s healthy, and he’d provide a huge boost to virtually any receiver-needy team.

The Chiefs are probably out of the mix because A.) Las Vegas won’t want to help a division rival and B.) Kansas City has just $4.6 million in cap space available. The Steelers, though, might want to make a play.

Pittsburgh tried to acquire Brandon Aiyuk from the San Francisco 49ers during the offseason, and it still lacks reliable receivers behind George Pickens and Calvin Austin III. Adding Adams to the mix might just make the Steelers a serious Super Bowl threat.

The Jets are another logical suitor, given Adams’ history with Rodgers. New York’s offense has shown glimpses of potency this season but still hasn’t found its identity with Rodgers healthy and under center.
