A possible return to the league?

Recently there have been many wild trades taking place. Especially in the wide receiver section. The Green Bay Packers have traded their franchise, WR Davante Adams, to the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders gave away their 2022 first- and second-round picks. Adams has signed a five-year, $141.25 million contract making him the highest-paid receiver in the league.

The Kansas City Chiefs have also parted ways with their star-wide receiver. Seeing the Adams deal, the fastest player in the NFL, Tyreek Hill supposedly asked the franchise to match the deal. But both sides were unable to agree so the Chiefs decided to let Hill go. The Dolphins picked him up and signed a four-year, $120 million extension through 2025, making him the league’s newest highest-paid receiver.
