After just one game with the New York Jets, Davante Adams wasn’t about to stay quiet. Following a brutal 37-15 loss to the Steelers, Adams stood in the locker room and let loose on his teammates, calling out a glaring lack of energy and urgency. “I’ve played on winning teams, and this wasn’t it,” Adams said, making it clear he’s not here to sugarcoat.
In what Aaron Rodgers described as “the realest speech I’ve ever heard in 20 years,” Adams, fresh from his trade from Las Vegas, reminded the Jets that without energy, they won’t go anywhere. With the team dropping their fourth straight and falling to 2-5, Adams knew he had to speak up—even after just five days with the team.
“I’m here to help shift this culture,” Adams declared, adding that plays like Breece Hall’s electrifying 57-yard catch shouldn’t go to waste. He’s not looking to be a savior, but he’s making it clear: if the Jets want to win, they need to wake up.
