Davante Adams<\/a> was one of the first people to know that Aaron Rodgers, and eventually himself, was not coming back to the New York Jets.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the Super Bowl, the Jets announced that they were moving on from Rodgers<\/a> after a tumultuous two-year tenure that resulted in playoff aspirations quickly being lit on fire.<\/p>\n

Rodgers played just four plays in a Jet uniform before rupturing his Achilles. And while last year isn’t entirely his fault, he sure looked like a 41-year-old quarterback coming off a major injury at times.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, it’s a new regime in East Rutherford, and Aaron Glenn and Darren Mougey made the decision to move on from Rodgers.<\/p>\n

Rodgers was bitter about the meeting when recounting it on “The Pat McAfee Show” last week, and he was bitter about it to his right-hand man in Adams.<\/p>\n

“We golfed together on a Wednesday in Vegas, at Shadow Creek, and then (Rodgers) told me he was going to (meet with the Jets) on Thursday and then come back and we\u2019d play again Friday,” Adams recently told The Athletic. “And he was just in such a bad mood (after the meeting) that he hit me up and was like, \u2018I\u2019m not coming back, bro.\u2019 He\u2019s like, \u2018This was horrible \u2013 they just disrespected me completely.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I thought he was being a little dramatic at first. I\u2019m like, \u2018Bro, don\u2019t paraphrase it. How did he say this?\u2019 (But) that\u2019s how he said it. And I was shocked because I didn\u2019t think anybody had the balls to, for lack of better words, to hit him with it like that. Just flat out \u2013 \u2018Yeah, I think we\u2019re just gonna do something different. We\u2019re gonna move in a different direction.\u2019 It was shocking, but right from that moment, I knew there was no chance that I\u2019d be back there.”<\/p>\n

That’s exactly what happened, as Adams, too, was released. He found a home rather quickly, as he signed with the Los Angeles Rams, who released Cooper Kupp, on a two-year deal.<\/p>\n

Rodgers said he felt disrespected after flying to visit the Jets “on my own dime.”<\/a><\/p>\n

“We sit down in the office and I think we\u2019re going to have this long conversation \u2013 I\u2019ve flown across the country \u2013 and 20 seconds in he goes \u2013 I mean literally, I\u2019m talking to the GM about something, and [Glenn] leans to the end of his seat and goes \u2018So do you wanna play football?\u2019”<\/p>\n

Rodgers responded that he did, but was quickly met by Glenn\u2019s news.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re going in a different direction at quarterback.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I wasn\u2019t upset about it, I was surprised,” Rodgers added. “I felt like there wasn\u2019t an ample amount of respect in that meeting. I guess I shouldn\u2019t have been surprised based on some of the things I saw over the two years.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rodgers’ likely destination appears to be the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are without a solid quarterback just two days before the draft, and every other domino has fallen. However, Rodgers remains a free agent.<\/p>\n
