In a recent report by Adam Schefter, the New York Jets are rumored to be considering a move for Davante Adams in the offseason, sparking speculation about a potential reunion with Aaron Rodgers. However, the Raiders’ uncertainty at quarterback and Adams’ desire to win a championship before the end of his career may lead him elsewhere, possibly back to Green Bay.
Adams, appearing on the Two G’s in a Pod podcast hosted by Amber Theoharis and former Packers receiver James Jones, was asked about his ideal quarterback. Surprisingly, Adams named Kirk Cousins and Jordan Love, praising Love’s impressive performance. “Man, I’ll say it. That boy Jordan Love is looking real good right now,” Adams exclaimed.
Considering Love’s ascent, a return to Green Bay becomes an intriguing possibility. Adams played in Love’s first career start against the Kansas City Chiefs, showcasing potential chemistry in Matt LaFleur’s offense. With the Packers already competing in the NFC and boasting one of the league’s most exciting young offenses, Adams could elevate the team to new heights.
However, there are significant obstacles to a potential Adams trade. The Raiders’ decision to appoint Antonio Pierce as their new head coach may influence Adams to stay in Las Vegas, given the high praise Pierce has received from players, including Adams himself. Additionally, a reunion with Rodgers in Las Vegas seems more plausible than a return to Green Bay.
From the Packers’ perspective, a trade for Adams would require premium draft capital and financial adjustments to accommodate his contract. With a youthful receiving corps, the question arises whether GM Brian Gutekunst would be willing to make such a blockbuster move.
Yet, there is a scenario where a Green Bay reunion makes sense. If Adams desires a Super Bowl run away from Las Vegas, the Packers, despite having the youngest roster in the NFL, could be an appealing option. With another year of development and offseason improvements, the Packers could reach new heights in 2024.
Imagine adding Adams to a receiving corps already featuring Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, and Dontayvion Wicks. While the likelihood of this scenario remains low, Adams’ comments are undeniably noteworthy, leaving fans speculating about the potential reunion in Green Bay.
