Frustrations get the better of Adams after Chiefs loss

Las Vegas Raiders v Kansas City Chiefs It was another close loss for the Raiders as they slumped to 1-4 on the season. All four losses have been by a single score, which makes it even worse. For Adams, his anger was largely due to the last play of the game. Facing a fourth down late in the last quarter, the 29-year-old and fellow receiver Hunter Renfrow collided. It resulted in the ball sailing over the pair's head, ending the game. Still, for anyone, that is no excuse for what the receiver did on his way to the locker room. For many, the Raiders were one of the teams to watch this season, but they have not been worthy. With their playoff hopes now severely dented, it would take a serious turnaround in fortunes for them to make the postseason. They're going to need to go on a serious run just to get back to .500. With division leaders the Kansas City Chiefs at 4-1, they would also have to take a serious dip in form. After just five games of the season, it appears that the Raiders' season is on life support. Their hopes for the season rest on what comes from Adams' charge. It comes with up to a six-month jail sentence or a $1,000 fine if he is found guilty, per ESPN. NFL Injuries: Find out about ?
