Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams were separated once more this offseason, with the New York Jets releasing both players outright following a failed 2024 season. Adams signed with the Los Angeles Rams in free agency to catch passes from Matthew Stafford, while Rodgers remains unsigned, meaning the two will likely play out the 2025 season in different uniforms (assuming Rodgers plays at all). But they remain close after so many years working together, and Adams gave some insight into how Rodgers handled the Jets' decision on Tuesday.

Speaking to Michael Silver of The Athletic, Adams revealed Rodgers's private reaction to the meeting where new GM Darren Mougey and new head coach Aaron Glenn told Rodgers the team was moving in a different direction. Rodgers shed light on the meeting himself last week on the Pat McAfee Show.
