MGM Resorts Signs All-Pro Raider as Brand Ambassador

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams signed up to be MGM Resorts International’s first active National Football League athlete brand ambassador. Adams will be featured in MGM Resorts marketing campaigns, digital content initiatives and participate in select MGM Rewards special events at the company’s Las Vegas and regional properties.

“Davante is a class act both on and off the field and has built a strong fan base,” said MGM Resorts International Senior Vice President of Sports and Sponsorships Lance Evans.

Adams came to the Raiders after eight seasons with the Green Bay Packers.

Adams broke the Packers’ franchise record for receiving yards in a single season with more than 1,500 yards last year, and became the only Packers player to have two games in a single postseason with at least 100 receiving yards.

“From day one, the MGM Resorts team welcomed my family and me to Las Vegas with open arms,” Adams said. “It’s truly an honor to be the first active NFL athlete to partner with this world-class company and to continue building a legacy in this new city I am privileged to call home.”
