The offseason was filled with trades and transfers. NFL legend Chad Johnson expressed his thoughts on one such transfer and why he thinks this WR is the best route runner in the league. Moreover, he explained the reason behind his opinion and why the Las Vegas Raiders got lucky with signing this WR. The WR in question was traded from the Green Bay Packers to the Raiders this offseason.

Chad Johnson took to Instagram to share that he thinks Davante Adams is the best route runner in the league. He shares a clip of Adams’ play on his Instagram to make his point. He feels that once a player masters beating and manipulating the press, you’re already one of the best in the league.

In March, the former Packers’ WR decided to leave Aaron Rodgers and join Derek Carr in the Las Vegas Raiders. A rather tough decision but Adams is willing to live with it. In addition, he signed one of the biggest deals in the history of the NFL for a WR.

There were speculations that Adams was unable to come to an understanding on a long-term deal with Green Bay; leading the Packers to use the franchise tag on the 29-year-old. However, Adams had no interest in playing under the franchise tag, and the relationship between the two sides was simply broken beyond repair.
