Davante Adams has been on the receiving end of plenty of passes from Aaron Rodgers.
Now, the former Green Bay Packer wideout and current Las Vegas Raider caught a barb from his ex-QB.
“Anytime you change quarterbacks from Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer … it’s going to be a little bit of an adjustment,” Adams told CBS Sports on Friday.
That would equate to going from Rodgers to Derek Carr means playing with a pair of quarterbacks who are destined for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, one day.
On Wednesday, Rodgers had some fun as he was asked about going from Adams to Allen Lazard as his top target.

Adams tried to dig himself out of the hole but didn’t seem to find clarity.
“Being a rapper, it’s very vital, you’ve got to have the bars, obviously,” Adams said Sunday. “You know you’ve got to have the bars. The line’s got to be there. But a very, very vital and critical piece of being a rapper is the delivery, right? I wasn’t a great rapper the other day.
“What I’m not going to do is take away from that statement because, why is Derek not a Hall of Famer? What I meant, I left one key word out of there because that’s not exactly what I meant. But I do think that Derek’s career is Hall of Fame-worthy, and why not? Does he have the MVPs right now? No. Has he won a Super Bowl? Not yet. That’s obviously what we’re chasing.”
Well played by No. 12 in Green Bay.
