Amid trade speculation, Davante Adams took to Instagram to post a picture of renowned writer Edgar Allan Poe, accompanied by the quote: Believe nothing you hear and half of what you see.

This cryptic message has sparked rumors suggesting that Adams might be eyeing a trade with the Ravens.

Interestingly, the team is named after one of Poes most famous works, The Raven, published in 1845.

On the Pat McAfee Show, McAfee and his team delved into the meaning behind Adams post, highlighting that Poe died in Baltimore and is buried there.

They added that even the Ravens mascots are named Edgar, Allan, and Poe.

The discussion took an interesting turn when a team member noted the New York connection, bringing the Jets into the picture: Its unclear if Adams intended to hint at a move to New York or was merely expressing his frustrations about the trade rumors with a quote from one of his favorite authors.

At present, the Jets and Ravens are seen as Adams potential destinations.

Given his past connection with Aaron Rodgers, the Jets appear to be the frontrunners.

However, no definitive evidence suggests a move is imminent.

Additionally, the reference to Poe aligns more closely with the Ravens narrative, considering Adams previous interest in playing alongside Lamar Jackson.

Adding another layer to the speculation, McAfee raised the possibility of Adams joining the New York Giants.

Interestingly, Poes death anniversary falls on October 7, which could mean Adams is paying an early tribute while also reflecting on his current situation.

So, what does this Instagram story mean? Maybe Adams is just miserable right now McAfee admitted he hadnt read any of Poes works.

However, he shared his thoughts on Adams cryptic post, suggesting it might be an expression of his feelings regarding the trade rumors.

The reason for such a viewpoint is justifiable, given that NFL players often quote their favorite authors to convey hidden messages.

While uncertainty looms over Davantes trade status, both Rodgers and Jackson would welcome his talent, considering his production numbers.

For now, it remains unclear where Adams priorities lie..
