Davante Adams agreed with Antonio Pierce's assessment of the Raiders' effort in Week 3.
Speaking to reporters, Pierce alluded to some players on the roster making "business decisions" instead of giving it their all during the game. It seems star wide receiver Davante Adams is in agreement with his coach's assessment of the team."Well, I mean, I agree," Adams said. "I think at the end of the day, you look at the drives we had at the end of that game, and we didn't really have much to play for other than pride. ...
Well, there you have it. It seems Pierce wasn't the only one to notice some players in the black and silver not giving their all. While Adams didn't name names, he made clear that the lack of effort didn't go unnoticed by the rest of the team, and it certainly shows up on the game tape. In the 36–22 loss, Adams caught four passes on nine targets for 40 yards, his least productive game of the season.Karl Rasmussen is a staff writer for the Breaking and Trending News team for Sports Illustrated.
