As the team is set to make Aaron Rodgers the highest-paid player in NFL history, the Packers have turned their attention toward ensuring their quarterback's favorite target remains in the fold.
Green Bay will reportedly use its franchise tag on Adams, keeping him with the team for the 2022 season. The two-time first-team All-Pro selection had another banner year in 2021, posting career highs in receptions (123) and receiving yards (1,553) to go along with 11 touchdown grabs.
Adams had over 1,000 yards more than Green Bay’s next-leading receiver (Allen Lazard, 513), so his presence in the Packers offense is certainly a priority for the team’s front office.
