Aaron Rodgers warns Green Bay Packers fans they need 'patience' over 'new Davante Adams'

Aaron Rodgers has claimed that Green Bay Packers might already have their Davante Adams replacement on the current roster, despite a slow start to the season offensively, and has warned fans they need to be patient. The legendary quarterback is coming off the back of consecutive MVP winning seasons and despite beginning the season with an impressive 3-1 start, the offense has failed to live up to its usual high standards.

Whilst Rodgers has highlighted that he needs to play better himself, the loss of Adams has been noticeable. Adams has had Rodgers as his quarterback throughout his NFL career, but was traded this off-season, to re-join college teammate Derek Carr with the Las Vegas Raiders.

However, Rodgers feels like they already might have their replacement for the 29-year-old superstar wide receiver already on their team, and looks forward to seeing him blossom. That player he has been referring to, is second-round rookie Christian Watson.
