When you really, really, really don't want Davante Adams to hurt you: /gzXpNChaww- Jonas Shaffer December 21, 2021Īdams was drafted with pick No. Adams is already an all-time great for the Packers It was considered an “off” game for the star wide receiver. It is somewhat awe-inspiring to know that even while facing coverages that made his quarterback think twice for probably the first time in years, Adams finished with seven receptions for 44 yards and a touchdown.

Kupp has undeniably been elite for the Rams, but if that were the only criteria we were looking at, Adams, and his 96 receptions, 1,248 yards, and eight touchdowns probably wouldn’t make the cut. If you were looking purely at the stats, Cooper Kupp leads the league in receptions (113), receiving yards (1,489), and receiving touchdowns (12). The thing is, you’d actually have to watch the games to come away with that conclusion. He very well could be the best receiver in the NFL.
