Two months after the Los Angeles Chargers took a shot at Davante Adams and the Las Vegas Raiders on X/Twitter, the superstar wide receiver finally responded with a firm message.
On the day of the 204 NFL schedule release, the Chargers’ social media team decided to have fun by running a thread that displayed side-by-side photos of their opponents and Pop-Tarts. For the Raiders’ post, the Bolts shared an image of Adams beside a photo of Pop-Tarts in a garbage dump:
During his appearance on Kay Adams’ “Up & Adams” show, the six-time Pro Bowl wideout warned the Chargers’ social media team to stop using his name. Adams also made the trash talk more juicy by pointing out his success against them:
“It’s not the players’ fault, they didn’t have anything to do with the posts. But this is directed strictly toward the Chargers’ social media page: Please keep my name out your mouth.”
As noted by the @UpAndAdamsShow X/Twitter account, Davante Adams has owned the Chargers over his last four games, with 494 receptions and four touchdowns.

And to make things even more exciting, the Raiders open their season against the Chargers at SoFi Stadium on Sept. 8. This will be Jim Harbaugh’s first game as head coach of the Chargers following a nine-year run at Michigan that concluded with a national championship victory.
The Raiders and Chargers will then conclude their annual two-game season series at Allegiant Stadium on Jan. 5 in Week 18.
Davante Adams & Raiders Eye A Return To The Postseason
The Raiders were coming off a 10-win season and surprise playoff appearance when they acquired Adams via trade with the Green Bay Packers two years ago. But the organization has gone backwards, recording consecutive losing seasons.
There’s reason for optimism in 2024, though. Antonio Pierce is the permanent head coach after leading the team to a 5-4 finish last year. The team signed ex-Miami Dolphins superstar defensive tackle Christian Wilkins in free agency and used a first-round pick on can’t-miss Georgia tight end prospect Brock Bowers.
So if it all comes together, the Silver and Black could finish above .500 and lock down just their third playoff appearance since 2003.
