WEDNESDAY: As expected, Adams will not be in uniform against the Cardinals. Adams will not travel with the Packers to Arizona, Steve Wyche of NFL.com notes (Twitter link). Adams, who is vaccinated, tested positive for COVID-19 Monday. Couple this with Allen Lazard‘s status as a high-risk close contact and Green Bay will be severely shorthanded at wide receiver for its high-profile Thursday matchup.
Barry will also miss the game. Defensive backs coach Jerry Gray and inside linebackers coach Kirk Olivadotti will run Green Bay’s defense in Barry’s absence.
MONDAY: The Packers have placed Davante Adams on the COVID-19 list, per a club announcement. It’s not immediately clear whether Adams has tested positive for the virus, but defensive coordinator Joe Barry entered quarantine after testing positive earlier today. 
Adams’ status for this week is now in doubt, pending tests. The Packers face the undefeated Cardinals on Thursday night, so the wide receiver has a very short window to clear protocol. Per league rules, he’ll need to pass two COVID tests on back-to-back days if he is asymptomatic.
Adams went off for six catches, 76 yards, and one touchdown against Washington on Sunday. For the year, he has 52 receptions for 744 yards and three TDs.
“Any time that you have any cases, you’re always a little bit concerned about that,” said head coach Matt LaFleur after disclosing Barry’s status. “But the majority of our guys are vaccinated, so there’s a little bit different protocol with that. I don’t think in terms of being at close contact with any of our players, I don’t think that’s a real concern of ours right now. But we’re still waiting to hear back from the league before we get clearance on anything.”
Biiiiggggg tiiiimmmmee saaaaaaaaddddddd
I’m eagerly waiting for some conspiracy nut to suggest Adams got the virus from an e-mail while in Washington.
Game was at Lambeau
Re-con mission.
Re-con..?
That’s short for reconnaissance.
Since when is 76 yards necessitate a “going off for”
That would equal 1293 yards, his third most of his career if he did it every game. That’s pretty impressive to me.
That’s 76 more receiving yards combined for all the comments on here in their careers
touché
Considering he’s the only receiver the Packers have that is worth a damn and the defenses know this and game plan around him, it is pretty good. Now if there was a complimentary piece like in Tampa where they have two legit #1’s in Evan’s and Godwin and a 1.5 in Brown then it would be weak sauce. But the Packers don’t— they have Adams, an old Cobb, and several others who wouldn’t even make half the rosters in the NFL in Lazard, ESB, MVS, and Taylor.
The NFL does not allow its key players to miss games due to positive COVID/Concussion tests unless they are showing obvious symptoms. Bridgewater is an example, as he clearly hasn’t recovered from his week 4 concussion but played the last three weeks.
How lucky is 7-0 Arizona? They haven’t played a single team that wasn’t short-handed.
LOL. Since 2019 Packers are 9-3 in games Davante Adams has not played. Facts over bs.
