Davante Adams, Las Vegas Raiders' new wide receiver who has till date spent his entire professional career with the Green Bay Packers, has recently compared his present and former teammates at the quarterback position, in an interview with CBS Sports. Adams was playing with Aaron Rodgers as the Packers' quarterback, and will now have to share the pitch with Derek Carr. Speaking on the changes he'd have to make to his game, Adams said, Anytime you change quarterbacks from Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer ... it's going to be a little bit of an adjustment. Also Read| Davante Adams humble to learn in first year with Raiders,However, fans of Rodgers took an exception to Adams' statement, and statistics also seem to favor the 38-year-old quarterback. While 2022-23 will be the eighteenth NFL season for the 2010 Super Bowl champion and 2021 NFL MVP, Carr will be entering his ninth season this year. Although Carr does holds a number of records when it comes to the Raiders' club history, fans are of the opinion that he comes nowhere close to Rodgers' legendary status, and cannot definitely be called a Hall of Famer. Some were also quick to point out that Adams was being diplomatic:,However, Adams later pointed out that he wasn't specifically stating that Carr belongs to the Hall of Fame right now, saying, I wasn't saying, 'Hall of Famer Aaron to Hall of Famer Derek.' So, I'm not retracting my statement at all. Adams was of the opinion that although Carr has neither been named MVP, nor has he won a Super Bowl yet, that is what the Raiders will be chasing this season. The Raiders had last won the Super Bowl in 1983. Also Read| NFL GOAT Tom Brady gifts jersey to WNBA's Kelsey Plum with a message: Watch,Adams and Carr's link-up will be of great interest to fans since the two will be sharing the dressing room for the first time since their Fresno state college days.

This is Adams's third consecutive appearance in the 99 Club after Madden 21, Madden 22, and first outside since leaving the Green Bay Packers. This is the debut of Trent Williams in the Madden 99 Club. He became the first-ever offensive lineman in Madden NFL history to join the 99 Club.

Green Bay Packers trade Davante Adams to Las Vegas Raiders: Report

The Green Bay Packers on Tuesday announced that reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers has signed a contract extension. However, the terms of the agreement have not been officially released yet. ,A week after Rodgers confirmed that he will stay at Green Bay, the team's general manager Brian Gutekunst announced that he will be a vital part in 'our pursuit of another Super Bowl title'. ,Reports claimed Rodgers had signed a new four-year deal worth $200 million that would make the quarterback the highest-paid player in NFL history. But he denied the claim. ,Also read: Dallas Cowboys keeping DeMarcus Lawrence on reworked contract,“We are very pleased to be able to come to an agreement with Aaron that keeps him in Green Bay. His play on the field and leadership in our locker room remain vital in our pursuit of another Super Bowl title. The agreement also allows us to maintain and enhance what we feel is already a very competitive roster, Gutekunst said in a statement. ,The confirmation from the team puts rest to months-long hiatus as Rodgers, after the season, had said he was unsure whether he would return to the Packers, request a trade or retire. The 38-year-old will play his 18th season with the team. ,“Hey everyone, just wanted to clear some things up; YES I will be playing with the @packers next year, however, reports about me signing a contract are inaccurate, as are the supposed terms of the contract I “signed”. I’m very excited to be back #year18,” Rodgers said in a tweet last week. ,Also read: NBA: Trae Young has 46 points, Atlanta Hawks top Portland Trail Blazers,The structure of the four-time MVP quarterback’s contract is designed to help the Packers’ salary-cap situation for now. According to NFL Network, Rodgers’ cap hit this year would be $28.5 million, $18 million lower than it would have been without this new deal. The Packers, four-time Super Bowl champions, released outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith and offensive lineman Billy Turner and extended the contract of outside linebacker Preston Smith this week. Now, they are expected to try reaching a long-term deal with All-Pro receiver Davante Adams. ,If they don’t reach an agreement by July 15, Adams’ salary for the 2022 season would be just over $20 million. Rodgers has spent his entire NFL career in Green Bay, but his future with the organization had been the subject of speculation ever since the Packers traded up four spots to take Utah State quarterback Jordan Love with the 26th overall pick in the 2020 draft. Rodgers skipped the Packers’ organized team activities and mandatory minicamp last year in a standoff with team management. He reported to training camp on time but expressed his concerns with the organization and said he wanted to have a voice in the team’s decision-making process. But he said on multiple occasions over the last few months that his relationship with team officials had improved significantly. Rodgers has earned MVP honors each of the last two seasons and has helped the Packers win three straight NFC North titles. The Packers lost in the NFC divisional playoffs last season after reaching the NFC championship game in the 2019 and 2020 seasons.

NFL: Green Bay Packers announce Aaron Rodgers' contract extension

GreenBayPackers

Washington, D.C., USA

Five players, including dynamic pass catchers Cooper Kupp and Davante Adams, are unanimous choices for The Associated Press 2021 NFL All-Pro Team. Joining the Rams' Kupp and the Packers' Adams in receiving votes Friday from all 50 members of a nationwide panel of media members who regularly cover the league are Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt, and Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald. While Donald is a perennial pick — the three-time Defensive Player of the Year makes the team for the seventh time in his eight pro seasons — Watt is on it for a third time. He tied the NFL record for sacks with 22 1/2. Adams makes it for the second time, and the other two are newcomers as All-Pros. Kupp led the NFL in receptions (145), yards receiving (1,947) and TD catches (16). Taylor was the top rusher by a landslide with 1,811 yards and scored 18 touchdowns on the ground, two as a receiver. Also read | Houston Texans fire head coach David Culley: Report,“Obviously, it’s an honor to be recognized, and it wouldn’t be possible without my coaches and incredible teammates, but the awards and accolades aren’t what drives me, said Watt, whose Steelers play at Kansas City on Sunday. It’s competing with and for them, this franchise, and this city, that drives me. My coaches and teammates are the people that put me in a position to make splash, help us win, and this recognition honestly doesn’t come without them.”,Like Donald, although not nearly as often as the offense-wrecking DT, several players are making another appearance on the All-Pro Team. Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers is on for the fourth time, as is Philadelphia center Jason Kelce — one more than his brother, Chiefs' star tight end Travis. One better than them: Dallas right guard Zack Martin and Baltimore placekicker Justin Tucker at five. Three-time All-Pros are Colts linebacker Darius Leonard, Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey, and Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward. Double All-Pros are Browns edge rusher Myles Garrett and Titans safety Kevin Byard. The other 14 2021 All-Pros are making their debuts. On offense, 49ers left tackle Trent Williams is a newcomer in his 11th NFL season, joined by Ravens tight end Mark Andrews, Buccaneers right tackle Tristan Wirfs, Browns left guard Joel Bitonio, and 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel. On defense, it's linebackers Micah Parsons of Dallas, the only rookie on the squad, and De'Vondre Campbell of Green Bay; Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs; Bills safety Jordan Poyer; and five special teamers: Las Vegas punter A.J. Cole, Jets kick returner Braxton Berrios, Ravens punt returner Devin Duvernay, Saints special teams ace J.T Gray, and Colts long snapper Luke Rhodes. Perhaps the most thrilled player is Williams, whose been a stellar blocker for a decade with Washington and now San Francisco, but never got the All-Pro nod. “I do feel more comfortable than I’ve ever felt,” he said. “I do feel like I’m as strong as I’ve ever been. I do feel my football IQ is probably better than it’s ever been. As a football player, as a competitor every year you want to be better than the last year. That’s my goal and always has been my goal. So if this year is better than last year, I hope so. That’s the plan.”,Almost as unusual as sweeping the votes is having a rookie on the team. Parsons has been so outstanding he's also considered a strong contender for the Defensive Player of the Year award. “I think it’s an extraordinary honor,” he said of being an All-Pro. It speaks to the work and the position the Cowboys put me in. I think it’s just a true blessing. It just makes you want to go harder. “I think when you achieve things early, you’ve got to learn how to sustain it. People always say when you get there it gets easier. But I think when you get there, it gets harder. Once you get it, you’ve got it. But it’s hard to sustain it than it is just to get there. I’ve got to just keep working and keep getting better and find a way to beat this season next year, which is the harder part.”,Also read | Why are athletes like Novak Djokovic reluctant about COVID19 vaccine?,Byard was an All-Pro in 2017, and now he's back on the roster after what he felt was a down 2020 season. “It means a lot to me, honestly, he acknowledged. I put a lot of work in every single offseason by myself, not necessarily with the team in training camp, but just try to come into the next season to try to play the best I can be for my team. I’ve talked about it a lot. Just not felt like I played my best last year. So to be able to bounce back and see the kind of the work that I put in mentally and physically kind of pay off.”,The Packers, Colts, Ravens, Rams and Cowboys each have three All-Pros. There's an even breakdown by conference of 14 apiece.

Ahead of their clash against the unbeaten Arizona Cardinals, Green Bay Packers have been handicapped as they will be without 2020 All-Pro receiver Davante Adams and defensive coordinator Joe Barry. On Monday afternoon, coach Matt LaFleur confirmed that Barry had tested positive for coronavirus following which general manager Brian Gutekunst announced that Adams too was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. ,LaFleur said that Barry is fully vaccinated and therefore possibly could join the Packers (6-1) for Thursday night’s game if he tested negative on Tuesday and Wednesday. Also Read: Congress asks NFL for Washington Football Team's probe information,But I’m not going to hold my breath on that, LaFleur added. Before the announcement, LaFleur talked with reporters about Adams, who is tied for second in the NFL in receptions (73) and third in receiving yards (744). He did admit that there were perhaps some additional staff concerns. Players who test positive or have close contact with someone who is sick are placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Also Read: NFL: New York Jets QB Zach Wilson sidelined after spraining knee ligament,The Packers are in advanced procedures, according to LaFleur, who claimed all of Monday's coaches meetings were held online. Whether or not they've been vaccinated, all team members must wear masks while in the building, according to LaFleur. If Barry is missing on Thursday, the Packers are debating which assistant will be in charge of calling defensive plays. Jerry Gray, the defensive backs coach, has previously worked as a defensive coordinator with the Buffalo Bills (2001-05) and Tennessee Titans (2011-13). Also Read: Arizona Cardinals move to 7-0 for the season, roll past Houston Texans 31-5,I think regardless of how we do it, it’ll be a collective effort with everybody involved and having an input, LaFleur said, AP reported. But certainly you feel confident with a guy like Jerry, who’s called it before and has had a top-five defense in this league. So we definitely have people that we feel are capable of getting the job done. With inputs from the Associated Press

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams says he occasionally is in the process of making a catch when he flashes back to a similar play he made months or years earlier. Also Read | Unstoppable Devante Adams records career-high 200-yard receiving game,Packers opponents must be feeling a similar sense of déjà vu this season as Adams continues producing at a level that could earn him All-Pro honors for a second straight season. Last year, Adams became the first player in NFL history to have at least 100 receptions and 18 touchdown catches in the same season. Although he has only reached the end zone twice this year, Adams is on pace to exceed last year’s totals in catches and yards receiving. “He’s got people draped all over him and it doesn’t matter,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said after Adams had a career-high 206 yards receiving Sunday in a 25-22 overtime victory at Cincinnati. “He finds a way to do it every time.”,Adams said after that game that he had told a few relatives beforehand he felt he might get a career high. He also talked about how he sometimes catches a pass and subconsciously thinks back to plays he’s made before. Adams referred to it as “some weird ‘That’s So Raven’ (stuff)”, a reference to the Disney Channel sitcom from the early 2000s featuring a teenage girl with psychic abilities. Also Read: Raiders coach Jon Gruden says he is 'not racist' as 2011 controversy sparks again,Adams went into more detail about that Wednesday. He said it happens maybe a few times a year, usually on long-developing plays like deep patterns. “I’ll be running, the ball will be in the air and I’ll feel like I’ve been in that moment before,” Adams said. “It’s basically déjà vu, like an active déjà vu, I guess you could say.”,Sometimes the flashbacks aren’t about catches he has made. They also can be about hits he’s absorbed. He cited an example from his college career at Fresno State. “Literally in the air, as I was flipping, (I was) thinking about how that same thing happened before against Nevada,” Adams said. “Same type of situation. I like it more when it happens on positive plays, but sometimes I’ll have it when I’m getting flipped in the air, too.”,Also Read: NFL: Arizona Cardinals glide over San Francisco 49ers with strong defense,Adams said he doesn’t recall this ever happening to him during his childhood. The flashbacks occurred as he got older. “I think I had to kind of grow into that superpower,” Adams quipped. This season also has revealed one of Adams’ other talents: his ability to stay focused. Adams heads into Sunday’s game at Chicago (3-1) with 42 catches for 579 yards to lead the NFL in both categories. Adams had a franchise-record 115 catches for 1,374 yards and 18 touchdowns last season. “He’s just so talented,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said after the Bengals game. “Even when you know that I’m probably going to him, he still finds a way to get open and makes a big catch and breaks a tackle. The guy is a special player.”
