In a surprising revelation from the Netflix documentary series "Receiver," Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams expressed his support for the decision to bench quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo during last season. The documentary show featured a clip in which Adams stated that he had given his approval for the move.

When asked about his opinion on the decision to sideline Garoppolo, Adams simply stated, "Well, my opinion on that was that I signed off on that, and that's just the reality of it." Although Adams didn't provide further details about what he exactly meant by "I signed off," it strongly suggests that Raiders coach Antonio Pierce sought Adams' input and Adams endorsed the decision to replace Garoppolo with Aidan O'Connell.

Adams further implied that he may have considered leaving the team if the Raiders didn't make a change at the quarterback position, stating, "I love Jimmy. He's a great guy, but something had to happen in order for us to have a chance down the stretch, and for me to remain a Raider, in all honesty." This statement reveals Adams' belief that a change at quarterback was necessary for the team's success.

With O'Connell now competing against Gardner Minshew for the starting role, Adams will be relying on either quarterback to deliver the ball to him in what will be his third year with the Raiders. As a talented wide receiver, Adams hopes that the new signal caller will be able to provide the offensive spark the team needs to thrive in the upcoming season.

The revelation of Adams' involvement in the decision to bench Garoppolo offers a unique insight into the dynamics within the Raiders' team. It underscores the significance of Adams' opinion and the role he played in shaping the team's quarterback situation. Fans and analysts will undoubtedly be watching closely to see how this decision ultimately affects the Raiders' performance in the upcoming season.

As the start of the season approaches, the focus will now turn to the competition between O'Connell and Minshew, as they battle for the coveted starting quarterback position. Both players will have the opportunity to prove themselves, knowing that a talented wide receiver like Adams will be relying on them to deliver on the field.

The Raiders' decision to listen to Adams' input and make the change at quarterback demonstrates the importance of open communication and collaboration within the team. Only time will tell whether this move will pay off, but for now, Raider Nation eagerly awaits the outcome of the quarterback competition and the start of the new season.
