- Star quarterback ‘surprised’ by decision to trade All-Pro receiver
- Packers did not pick replacement during first round of NFL draft
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said he was “surprised” by the decision to trade two-time All-Pro receiver Davante Adams last month in his first public comments since signing a contract extension with the only NFL team he’s ever played for.
While speaking Thursday night on Pat McAfee’s SiriusXM and YouTube show, Rodgers said he believed that his own three-year, $150m extension that ensured his return for an 18th season with the Packers would prompt Green Bay’s front office to come to terms with Adams.
