Davante Adams puts the Raiders ahead early against Chiefs with long touchdown
The Las Vegas Raiders have a chance to really save their season on Monday night in Kansas City and they are off to a great start. The Raiders struck first in the AFC West showdown when Derek Carr found Davante Adams for a 58-yard touchdown. T
he play happened on a fourth and one in the first quarter as Carr dropped back and hit Adams in stride.
Watch as Adams beats the defender and streaks down the field for the early score:
CARR. ADAMS. @Raiders are on the board first.

The touchdown was also the 200th passing touchdown in Derek Carr’s career. However, Adams threw the ball into the stands not knowing the fact and he may want that one back. Either way, it’s worth celebrating the big score early on in this game.
The Raiders added another score in the second quarter after the Chiefs missed a field goal. That turned into a Josh Jacobs one-yard touchdown run and a 14-0 Raiders lead.
There’s still a long ways to go in this one but right now things look good for the Raiders in Kansas City.
