DAVANTE ADAMS

The Green Bay Packers’ defense is meeting offseason expectations and giving this storied franchise a new look.

The Raiders have lost their first two games of the season, blowing a 20-point halftime lead and 16-point fourth-quarter lead in a 29-23 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Now, instead of building on last year's playoff berth, the Raiders are just trying to get going in 2022 under a new regime.

Star tight end Darren Waller has agreed on a three-year contract extension with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Davante Adams might not be the only notable receiver missing when the Green Bay Packers open their season.
