When the Green Bay Packers franchise-tagged Davante Adams during the 2022 offseason, the star wide receiver took a risk.
With then-Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers non-committal about his future and Adams unsure if he wanted to commit to Green Bay long-term, he requested a trade to the Las Vegas Raiders and promptly signed a five-year, $140 million deal.
And while the move has worked out for Adams thus far (he’s had back-to-back seasons with 100 or more catches and 1,000 or more yards), the wideout said on Maxx Crosby’s “The Rush Podcast” that after seeing what Jordan Love accomplished in 2023, he may have jumped the gun in wanting out of Green Bay.
“At the time when I was there, I hadn’t seen enough [of Love] to say for sure ‘[staying with the Packers] is what I should do,’” Adams said. “In hindsight, like we talked about, [Love] is a [expletive] baller, man. I’m so happy for him.”
Love became just the fifth player in NFL history to throw for 4,000 or more yards and 30 or more touchdowns in his first full season as a starting QB.
He led the Packers to wins in six of their last eight regular-season games to earn a postseason berth, throwing 18 touchdowns and just one interception over that span.
