“Miss you”, Aaron Rodgers Reveals Honest Opinion Upon Missing Davante Adams Ahead Of Cardinals Clash

The Green Bay Packers have been in electrifying form throughout the 2021 season so far as they were successful in turning around a devastating fiasco against the Saints in the season opener and right now is stationed comfortably at the top of the NFC North standings. Their closest pursuer in the group is the Minnesota Vikings who have a win-loss record of 3-3.

After a shocker in the season opener that saw the Packers going down by 38-3 to the saints, they came back extraordinarily against the Detroit Lions and wrung out a thrilling victory against the San Francisco 49ers. They were relentless against the Steelers and ran roughshod over the Bengals. Their juggernaut showed no signs of rust as they comfortably thrashed the Bears and the Washington Football Team.

However, with the Cardinals up ahead, the Packers will have their frowns accentuated as Davante Adams has tested positive for Covid-19. The All-Pro wide receiver was placed on the Covid 19 reserve list and ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirmed that Adams did test for the menacing virus. Rodgers had to face a volley of questions aimed at him as it is an obvious fact that the absence of Adams will be an instrumental factor in the marquee clash.

Aaron Rodgers on how the Packers have gone 6-0 without Davante Adams the last two years:

“I don’t know. We’re not a better team without him, that’s for sure… We just found a way in each of those games.”

The Packers quarterback confirmed that he himself was not in any kind of jeopardy over contact with Adams. However, wideout Lazar Hayward was ruled out after being placed on the list alongside Adams. Though no confirmation has arrived whether Hayward has tested positive for the virus too. As the unavailability news of Adams came to the fore, the Packers have actually dug up an important piece of stat that would aid in answering the questions of the reporters. In the span of the last two years, the Packers have a record of 6-0 without Adams.

The Cardinals are yet undefeated and will be reprieved to see that Adams will not be in the lineup against them. Aaron Rodgers has also said that the gameplan against the Cardinals will be altered as the absence of their star wide receiver will place a question mark in their exploits against Arizona. Only time will tell that who would prevail in the clash of the NFL 2021 titans.
