Aaron Rodgers Heaps Praise on ‘Phenomenal Wide Receiver’ Davante Adams

The Green Bay Packers made their way to a comfortable 17-34 win over an injury-ridden San Francisco 49ers outfit led by coach Kyle Shanahan. The Wisconsin-based franchise looked right from kick-off.

However, the home team did try to stage a comeback in the 4th quarter at Levi’s Stadium on Thursday night.

Two of the standout performers for the visitors were quarterback Aaron Rodgers (as usual) and wide receiver Davante Adams. On 10 receptions last night, Adams went for 173 yards with 1 receiving touchdown.

Aaron Rodgers in awe of talented wide receiver Davante Adams

Aaron Rodgers made his weekly appearance on The Pat McAfee Show earlier today. The 2-time NFL MVP was asked to comment on teammate Davante Adams’ rise to the top as one of the best wide receivers in the league.

He replied, “Well, I think he’s doing it with his play. And he’s done in a variety of different ways. I think what he does that, his skill set is so unique because he has the talent to get on top on the outside, we saw last night.

“He’s an incredible route runner. He’s good at in breakers and out breakers, he’s good after the catch. You just don’t have that combination.

“You know, the play where he was getting draped all over on fourth and inches, and I couldn’t believe he caught it. And it was just you know, I felt good about the spot.

“But it’s just like an amazing catch, as his glove is getting ripped off. And he’s just such a he’s such a talented guy,” Rodgers said on the show.

Rodgers applauds Davante Adams’ confidence in the dressing room

Adams has 675 yards on 53 receptions this season. He has an impressive receiving touchdown count of 8 and is clearly one of the most lethal wideouts in the league at the moment.

“He’s just such a he’s such a talented guy. And he’s got such great confidence. It’s, it’s one of those things back where I know you felt this way playing like and with some great players.

“But you can sit in their locker room before the game and, and kind of look around and engage in the feel of the team like you know, who looks locked in, who looks relaxed, who might be nervous today who I need to, like focus on to make sure they’re, you know, dialed in to feel good about things.

“Every time I look Davante, I just think man, I’m so glad he’s on our team,” Rodgers added.

After Thursday’s win against the San Francisco 49ers, the Packers have cemented their spot at the top of the NFC North Division table. They play the Jacksonville Jaguars next week.

Following that, the Packers will face-off against the Indianapolis Colts a week later. If Aaron Rodgers and Co. keep playing the way they did on Thursday, they will surely become favorites to win the Super Bowl Trophy this season.
