"Steal for the Jets tbh," tweeted another.
"Raiders got FLEEEEECED!" a third tweeted.

There were also divided opinions, with some suggesting that the Raiders got the better end of the deal.

"Raiders struck gold. I thought the best they'd get was a 4th," one fan said.
"W for Vegas," another tweeted.
"Adding another receiver doesn’t change the fact that your ancient QB is good for at least one overthrow INT in the 4th Quarter a game," a user tweeted.

The Raiders lured Adams from the Green Bay Packers in 2022. At the time, Las Vegas traded a first- and second-round pick to the Green Bay Packers for the receiver.

Adams signed a blockbuster $140 million deal to join the Raiders. He is currently in the third year of that contract amid a move to the Jets. It's important to note that Las Vegas will not pay any of Adams' remaining salary in the deal following his trade to New York.

While Adams joined the Raiders in 2022, Rodgers left Green Bay to sign with the Jets in 2023.

This season, the Jets have struggled with their offense and the team is currently third in the AFC East with a 2-4 record. They fired coach Robert Saleh last week but lost to the Buffalo Bills on Monday night.

Amid making bold moves for growth, the Jets will hope that Adams' reunion with Rodgers can get the team out of a tough spot.
