With the star wide receiver’s trade to the Las Vegas Raiders, the Packers brought to an end perhaps one of the most sensational quarterback/receiver partnerships in the history of the NFL. It now seems, however, like it wasn’t a surprise to everyone.
The Packers’ trading of Davante Adames was a shock
In a week that has seen some big moves between teams, The Green Bay Packers and Las Vegas Raiders combined to complete what can only be considered the biggest of the NFL offseason so far. It has now been reported several times over that the Packers star wide receiver Davante Adams will be traded to the Raiders in exchange for Las Vegas’ first and second round picks. While there is surely a lot of head scratching going on as the NFL comes to terms with the blockbuster deal, there are many who will find it hard to comprehend when considering the fact that Packers star QB Aaron Rodgers just recently put pen to paper on a new deal with Green Bay. Indeed, the pair have been terrorizing defenses since 2014, but that now seems set to be nothing more than a memory.

Reportedly, Adams told the Packers that he was not be returning to the franchise for 2022 as he felt the relationship was far past it’s shelf life.
