The Las Vegas Raiders' decision to bench quarterback Derek Carr has brought out a plethora of opinions.

His future with the team is certainly up in the air. Accordingly, one this best friends and teammates is unsure about what will happen.

Before this season, the Raiders traded for star wide receiver Davante Adams. Adams and Carr have been buddies since college, and Carr played a big role in getting Adams to Las Vegas.

Now, just a year later, he is probably out the door.

Adams had plenty of thoughts on the situation when asked about it on Wednesday. 

Adams is clearly affected by the team's decision.

Carr isn't just his quarterback. He is one of his closest friends, and he wants to see him succeed.

Regardless, he is focused on finishing this year strong. Even with Vegas out of the playoff race, he wants to make plays and pick up wins to close out the season. His determination is undeniable.

Adams joined the Raiders this past off-season to help Carr accomplish his goals in Las Vegas. It just hasn't quite worked out how the team expected it to, but that's the NFL. It is unpredictable and a tough, tough business.

Only time will tell how this affects Adams' future with the Raiders.

He is one of the greatest wide receivers in the game. He left Aaron Rodgers just a season ago. Adams has his expectations for himself and his teams, so the Raiders need to figure it all out with him.

His cost between draft capital and his contract extension will push the Raiders to keep Adams no matter what.
