“Of course, I love Davante,” Rodgers said on “Up & Adams.” I’d love to play with Davante again. It might be in the 2028 Olympics if they let some of the old guys go out and play. But we’ll see. I want him to have great success. I love him. We keep in contact.”

During this offseason, Rodgers told Adams to leave the Raiders and join him at the New York Jets. However, there have not been any negotiations between the two clubs yet, so they might have to wait a little longer to become teammates once again.
