'You can't walk, you can't run' on turf toe, but maybe Davante Adams can adjust

GREEN BAY, Wis. -– Davante Adams makes his living with his hands, but the Green Bay Packers receiver wouldn’t be where he is now without his feet.

“What my game is based on is explosion,” Adams said last week.

The best evidence came not when Adams put up career numbers last season with 111 catches -– one shy of the franchise single-season record -- 1,386 yards and 13 touchdowns and not even when he emerged as the Packers’ No. 1 receiver in 2016.

It showed in 2015, when after a promising rookie season Adams suffered an early-season ankle injury that all but ruined his second year.
