It was only a week ago that we were talking about Las Vegas sports royalty being formed. Las Vegas Aces star Kelsey Plum got hitched to Las Vegas Raiders star Darren Waller. Well… it didn’t last long.
No, Kelsey and Darren didn’t get divorced already. By all accounts, they seem to be happy as can be. But chances are she’s not too happy that her hubby was just traded to the New York Giants.
The news dropped on Tuesday. The team announced they traded Waller to New York for a 3rd round pick. The Las Vegas Raiders just picked up New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers, which many touted as a move that bolstered an all-star receiving crew that might be an AFC buzzsaw. But almost immediately, the Raiders made the Waller trade… making posts like this one irrelevant:

All told, Waller leaves the Raiders franchise a legend. 4th most career yards per game, 6th most career receptions, most receptions in a season and 11th most receiving yards in Raiders history! No slouch.
Why did Waller get traded by the Las Vegas Raiders? Kelsey Plum has an idea…
Why would the Raiders coach Josh McDaniels want to get rid of Waller? After all, he set all those records. Is it because he’s 30 years old and potentially about to start slumping? Is he a problem child off the field? Kelsey Plum a.k.a. Mrs. Darren Waller, has an idea:
Prolly cause he wasnโt invited to the wedding lol https://t.co/K3i7oW5oe4

Oh mah lawd! It was already awkward enough that Darren Waller and teammate Maxx Crosby got married on the same day, but this just pours gasoline on the fire that is the McDaniels era of the Las Vegas Raiders. Do players not like him? Is there drama in the locker room?
The rumor on Twitter is that Darren & Kelsey were hoping to keep their wedding a secret, but Josh McDaniels leaked it. The tea is just too piping hot…
Even more awkward, she is talking about the head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders, owned by Mark Davis, who also owns the Las Vegas Aces. Oooh…
All we know is Kelsey broke the internet and the reactions to her response are hysterical…
