Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers know each other since their days together at the Green Bay Packers. Following Adams’ departure from the Packers last offseason, there were rumors of a possible reunion this year. However, recent reports suggest that this has not occurred. Furthermore, the wide receiver appears to be furious with the Las Vegas Raiders for their agreement with Jimmy Garoppolo.
Adams’ apparent response to the deal gives away his reunion desire with Rodgers. But what did he actually say?

Devante Adams does not seem happy with his new QB for the Raiders. He shared a cryptic message on Instagram that surely looks like a response to the deal. Or is it something else entirely?
“If we haven’t talked in the last three weeks, please don’t hit me up for this sh*t. Thanks,” Adams wrote in an Instagram story.

The Raiders have reportedly agreed on a deal with former San Francisco 49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo. They needed a QB after Derek Carr left the team but the choice may not have gone down well with the team’s star wide receiver.
Now the whole Aaron Rodgers saga is a bit old but it really kickstarted three weeks ago with the QBs desire for a darkness retreat. He had already indicated that he may not return to the Packers. The Raiders were in for Rodgers but then went for Garoppolo. So either Adams is not happy that the franchise didn’t get Rodgers, or he is irritated with so many people asking him about it. Either way, nobody will dare slide into his DMs to get a clarification.
The Aaron Rodgers saga
Even though Davante Adams might not be happy, the Aaron Rodgers saga also seems to be coming to an end. And it looks like he is going all the way to the east coast, far away from the west coast that Adams is on. According to reports, the New York Jets will sign the future hall of famer soon.

The Raiders had given up on the hopes long ago and the Jets were the only team in the race. And it looks like they will get the WB that they want. The four-time NFL MVP has the potential to make the Jets instant competitors, something that the franchise is aiming at.

Jimmy Garoppolo is a great choice for the Raiders who desperately wanted an experienced QB. Garoppolo shone in the red and gold in 2022 and the Raiders will expect something similar. Will the Adams-Garoppolo partnership work? And will Rodgers finally deliver success for the Jets?
