The Jets ended another failed experiment Tuesday by moving on from Davante Adams.
As has been expected from the moment that the Jets decided to part ways with Aaron Rodgers, the Jets released Adams, a source told The Post.
The Jets traded a third-round pick (No. 73 overall) in the upcoming draft to the Raiders for what wound up as an 11-game rental of Adams.
The trade was made at a time when the Jets were trying to salvage the 2024 season, even after firing head coach Robert Saleh.
Adams produced 67 catches for 854 yards and seven touchdowns in 11 games but couldn’t keep the Jets from sputtering to a 5-12 record.
By releasing Adams, the Jets save slightly more than $32 million in salary-cap space and take on a $6.2 million dead-cap charge.


The Jets had hoped to deal Adams, but that was an unrealistic scenario because no team was going to inherit his whopper of a salary in the final year of his contract.
