Davante Adams reacts to colossal Jets trade with cryptic Instagram post

Davante Adams seemingly hinted he’s in good spirits as the Jets are finalizing a blockbuster trade for the star wide receiver.

Adams, who requested a trade from Las Vegas earlier this month, posted a video of his daughter, Daija, 5, smiling into the camera on his Instagram Story on Tuesday.

It came shortly after The Post’s Brian Costello confirmed the trade that will reunite Adams with his good friend, quarterback Aaron Rodgers — whom he spent eight seasons with in Green Bay.

The Raiders will receive a conditional third-round draft pick that could improve to a second-round selection, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The Jets are taking on the remainder of Adams’ contract.

Adams was in the Jets building on Tuesday, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.

Adams, who is due about $12.1 million in salary over the rest of this season, has base salaries of $35.6 million across the next two years, however, none of that is guaranteed.

The Adams trade is still pending a physical.

The All-Pro wideout has been dealing with a hamstring injury since Week 4.

Adams missed the Raiders’ last three games — a 20-16 win over the Browns on Sept. 29, a 34-18 loss to the Broncos on Oct. 6, and a 32-12 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

In three games for the Raiders this season, Adams tallied 18 catches for 209 yards and a touchdown.

Adams and his wife, Devanne Joelle, announced they were expecting a baby boy together in April. They are also parents to daughter Dezi, 2.
