New York Jets large receiver Davante Adams realizes his reunion with quarterback Aaron Rodgers will most likely be short-lived.
The Jets (3-10) had been eradicated from the playoffs in a 32-26 additional time loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 14. Contemplating it is failed to satisfy expectations this season, New York might finish the Rodgers experiment quickly.
“I imply, it’s going to be a tragic factor for certain, however hopefully that is not the case,” Adams mentioned of Rodgers’ potential departure Tuesday on “Up & Adams.” “That is why we received to take advantage of those we have now right here…We had a good displaying final sport, and I do say first rate as a result of it is lower than our normal of greatness, however it was positively a step in the best path.”
In opposition to Miami, Rodgers accomplished 27 of 39 passes for 339 yards and one landing. Adams, in the meantime, logged 9 receptions for 109 yards and one landing. Nevertheless, these performances might be outliers.
By means of his first 13 begins, Rodgers, 41, has accomplished a subpar 63.1% of his passes for two,966 yards and 20 TDs and has tossed eight interceptions.
For the reason that Las Vegas Raiders dealt Adams to the Jets on Oct. 15, he has 40 receptions for 453 yards and three TD catches in seven video games with the membership. He has did not surpass 100 receiving yards in six of his seven video games in New York.
If the Jets launch Rodgers with a post-June 1 designation, they might incur $14M in lifeless cap in 2025 and $35M in 2026, per Spotrac. Regardless of the cap prices, count on New York to chop the QB. SNY’s Connor Hughes just lately reported the Jets “desire to maneuver on from Rodgers.”
Adams’ future with the Jets can also be unsure. The 31-year-old may have the staff’s highest cap hit ($38.3M) in 2025. If he refuses to restructure his contract, financial institution on him taking part in elsewhere.
When the Jets reunited the previous Inexperienced Bay Packers tandem, they thought it will make them a Tremendous Bowl contender. As a substitute, it has been a letdown.
