Raiders' Davante Adams could be suspended for post-game push
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams is facing league discipline for shoving a photographer to the ground after Monday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, reports Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
What It Means:
Adams has apologized multiple times for the incident, but the star receiver could be facing a fine or suspension after letting his anger get the best of him Monday night. Mack Hollins and Hunter Renfrow would likely benefit the most if Adams is suspended, especially if Darren Waller (hamstring) is also unavailable. The Raiders are on bye in Week 6, so Adams' potential suspension wouldn't come until Week 7 against the Houston Texans.
Prior to the post-game push, Adams caught 3 passes on 7 targets for 124 yards and 2 touchdowns. He is averaging the fifth-most PPR points (20.1) among wide receivers this season and also has the fifth-highest target share (32.0%) in the league.
