I always thought that it wasn't so much a light not coming on, but more of not having a QB able to take advantage of his talents. I was hoping to see him blossom with Carr who has made several TE's look great, but it is what it is.

Adam just always seem like he was playing injured. Catch a pass, limp off the field kinda guy.

It's true that Trautman never played with a QB who could douse the ball in super glue immediately before throwing it, then rinse Trautman's hands with paint thinner to remove the ball, all without the refs or cameras taking notice. However, a converted WR named Juwan Johnson was able to take advantage of his own talents with lesser QBs.
