Report: Packers, Adams haven't discussed contract as tag window opens
The Green Bay Packers and Davante Adams have not had any contract discussions since the end of the season, a source told The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Silverstein.
Adams is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, though he is a candidate for the franchise tag. The window for applying the franchise tag opened Tuesday and runs until March 8.
It was reported in January that the two parties hadn't sat down since contract discussions broke off in late July.
The 29-year-old's future could also affect quarterback Aaron Rodgers' decision about whether to stay with the Packers. The reigning NFL MVP said Tuesday he has not made a call regarding his own fate in Green Bay, but he alluded to the possibility of the team tagging Adams, according to Ben Standig of The Athletic.
Adams also previously acknowledged that Rodgers' decision could affect his own move.
A second-round pick in 2014, Adams has developed into one of the game's top receivers. He collected his fifth straight Pro Bowl nod in 2021 after catching 123 passes for 1,553 yards with 11 touchdowns.
