Davante Adams: Rodgers' Looming Exit Factored Into Leaving Packers

Jun 10, 2022 8:59 AM

Davante Adams says he still has a good relationship with Aaron Rodgers, but admitted that the quarterback's looming retirement factored into his decision to leave the Green Bay Packers.

The Packers traded Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders in a blockbuster move this March.

"Oh, yeah. We've talked multiple times. We talked throughout the whole process, too, and he was aware of where I stood, and I was aware of where he stood," Adams said of Rodgers. "We had talks just like what he said the other day. He mentioned we had talks about his future and what he thinks his duration in Green Bay or just football in general would look like, and that played into my decision, as well. Because where I am in my career -- and this isn't a shot at anybody, any other quarterbacks, in Green Bay, I love Jordan Love especially, he's a great guy -- I got aspirations of doing really, really big things and being remembered, and it just wasn't really a point in my career that I was willing to sacrifice Aaron not being there after a year or two.

"So my decision was to be here, and he respected that, he understood that it has a lot to do with where I want to raise my kids, family, being closer to home. ... We've had a lot of good talks, man. He understands where I'm coming from, I understood where he was coming from, so we kind of just left it at that."

Derek Carr Says Colin Kaepernick Would Fit In 'Great' With Raiders

Jun 8, 2022 8:19 AM

Derek Carr says he endorsed the Las Vegas Raiders giving Colin Kaepernick a workout at the team facility two weeks ago.

Carr added, "I think he'd be great" in the locker room, should Las Vegas sign Kaepernick.

Kaepernick, who took a knee to protest police brutality and racial injustice during the pregame national anthem, has not played in the NFL since 2016.

"I don't want to speak for everybody in that kind of sense -- I don't want someone mad at me for saying, 'I think it would be great,' -- but I know him and I would get along great," Carr said Tuesday, following the Raiders' first mandatory minicamp practice. "I know we have in the past, and I think we would again. I think for the most part, I think he'd get along great with our guys."
