The Green bay packers suffered from different injuries in their starting squad, the one that weighed the most was that of Rodgers. By losing their starting quarterback, the offense of the Cheese Head had to look for some other alternatives and they found hope in Adams, who sand became the leader in touchdown receptions and yards per game in 2020, but he did nothing to quell the rumors of his supposed departure.

In 2021, Adams will play under his last year of contract with the Packers.
