GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - All-Pro Green Bay Packers WR Davante Adams has informed the team he will not play on the franchise tag, according to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.
Rapoport says the Packers and Adams “remain far apart” on a long-term deal.
“This relationship is not in a great place,” Rapoport reports.
The team placed the franchise tag on Adams to prevent him from becoming an unrestricted free agent. They have until July 15 to work out a long-term contract.
This comes as MVP QB Aaron Rodgers is set to return to the team for his 18th season.
