Watch: Davante Adams has Fresno State No. 15 jersey retired next to Derek Carr No. 4

This weekend the Raiders were on their bye and it offered the perfect opportunity for Fresno State to schedule the ceremony to retire the number 15 jersey of Davante Adams.

The montage the team put put to announce Adams’s jersey retirement ceremony went through his entire career, starting with the insane numbers he put up at Fresno State with Derek Carr as his quarterback.

That led to his becoming a round two pick by the Green Bay Packers where he continued displaying his supreme talents as Aaron Rodgers’s number one target the past six seasons.

Then on to Adams coming full circle, returning to team up with Derek Carr in Las Vegas with the Raiders this season.

Here is the moment Adams’s jersey number was retired along with what he had to say immediately afterward as captured by Anthony Galaviz of the Fresno Bee.

Fresno State’s twitter account also put out a short video which combined snippets of the ceremony with Adams’s highlight tape.

As you can see, Adams’s number 15 was revealed, right alongside Derek Carr’s number 4. Carr was onhand for the ceremony — after all, it’s his bye week too — to support his long time friend, former Bulldogs teammates, and current Raiders teammate.

Congrats, Davante, on this moment. Hopefully many more enshrinements to come in you future.
