Davante Adams Sends Clear Message on Relationship With Rams' Puka Nacua

Davante Adams Sends Clear Message on Relationship With Rams' Puka Nacua originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Los Angeles Rams have retooled quite quickly after they went 5-12 in 2022 just one season after they won the Super Bowl championship. Advertisement They have won 10 games and made the playoffs in each of the last two seasons, and thanks to the addition of wide receiver Davante Adams and a cadre of young studs, they have high hopes for this fall and winter. Adams, a six-time Pro Bowler, could end up being an upgrade over the outgoing Cooper Kupp, and fellow Rams wideout Puka Nacua said that Adams is already having a positive effect on his new team. "The positive impact has already been felt from Davante," Nacua said. Adams, in turn, returned the favor on Instagram. "Special dude," his caption read. Davante Adams, Instagram Adams made his name as a member of the Green Bay Packers from 2014 to 2021 alongside future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers. A second-round draft pick in 2014 out of Fresno State, the Northern California native grew into Rodgers' favorite target within a few years. Advertisement The Packers traded him to the Las Vegas Raiders prior to the 2022 campaign, and although the Raiders weren't successful with him, he continued to produce at a high level. New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams© Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Last year, Adams was shipped at midseason to the New York Jets, where he was reunited with Rodgers. Although the Jets went just 5-12, he still managed to catch 85 passes and post 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns. The Rams are hoping that at age 32, he still has plenty left in his tank. Assuming he does, he could turn them into a true dark horse team in an improved NFC and make the race for the conference more interesting.

Stefon Diggs Makes Strong Statement on Monday After Personal Event

Stefon Diggs Makes Strong Statement on Monday After Personal Event originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Lately, during OTAs, star wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been getting himself acclimated to the New England Patriots, his new team for the upcoming season. Advertisement He has looked to build chemistry with promising young quarterback Drake Maye, and he's hoping to bounce back after his 2024 season was cut short by a torn ACL. After the Patriots' OTAs ended last week, they started their mandatory minicamp on Monday. Diggs found some time to hold his annual day camp for kids, and he made a statement about the event on his Instagram account. "Family, Football, and FUN!!!!" he wrote. "This was year 4 of my annual Diggs day camp. It's crazy watching these kids grow up right before our eyes. Thankful for everyone who played a part in the camps success.. let's keep going ❤️❤️❤️❤️" It may be easy to forget after his frustrating and disappointing 2024 season, but before that, Diggs was one of the NFL's very best wideouts. Dec 31, 2023; Orchard Park, New York, USA; Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs (14) is tackled by New England Patriots defensive end Lawrence Guy Konezny-USA TODAY Sports From 2018 to 2023, he posted over 1,000 receiving yards each year, and he was named to the Pro Bowl four straight times from 2020 to 2023. Once the Minnesota Vikings traded him to the Buffalo Bills in 2020, he helped make the Bills into bona fide Super Bowl contenders. Advertisement But there were rumors of a rift between him and the team during his final season in Buffalo, and he was dealt to Houston last offseason. In eight games last season, he posted 47 catches, 496 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He's now a member of a rebuilding New England squad that is looking to get out of the post-Tom Brady wilderness. It will likely miss the playoffs again this winter, but it is hoping Diggs can help guide it back to respectability not too long from now.

Vikings Urged to Pounce on Rival $84 Million CB Who Just Became Available

Vikings Urged to Pounce on Rival $84 Million CB Who Just Became Available originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Minnesota Vikings used free agency to plug holes in the secondary last offseason and could be poised to employ a similar strategy heading into training camp. Advertisement The NFC North Division rival Green Bay Packers parted ways with All-Pro cornerback Jaire Alexander on Monday, two years into the two-time Pro Bowler's $84 million contract. When Alexander signed that deal in May 2022, it made him the richest cornerback in NFL history at the time. Things haven't gone great for Alexander since, however. He missed 10 games in each of the past two seasons due to injury issues and was also served a one-game suspension by the team, as personality clashes between Alexander and the Packers' front office/coaching staff became more evident with time. Former Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Banks-Imagn Images That said, when healthy, the 28-year-old defensive back is still capable of playing lockdown defense. Green Bay may not have let him go were it not for the $17 million in savings the team recouped by doing so. Advertisement Alexander isn't going to come cheap, per say, though right now is the time to sign him to an affordable one-year contract. The Vikings make sense in that regard in several ways, as the team has one lockdown cornerback in Byron Murphy but lost its other two starters at the position during the offseason. Brian Flores also plays an aggressive style of defense that led to a league-leading 24 interceptions by the Vikings last season. Alexander could potentially rebuild his value in a big way statistically in such a scenario, while also playing on a team with legitimate playoff/Super Bowl aspirations and one that will afford him at least two opportunities to inflict direct revenge on his former employer during division play. Kay Adams of FanDuel TV's "Up & Adams" had similar ideas on her Monday broadcast. "My vote for landing spot for one Jaire Alexander would be the Vikings, of course," Adams said. "We can do the funniest thing ever here. Join forces with he who you like jawing against (in Justin Jefferson). Advertisement "Go to the Vikings. So much has gone on between him and Minnesota over the years. They need a corner."
