Packers WR Davante Adams ready to inherit leadership role from Jordy Nelson

Then, Adams said, he followed up when Nelson took his visit to Oakland, facilitating a 5 1/2-hour steakhouse dinner with Nelson and Carr.
“I was trying to get them acquainted,” Adams said, “because I was pushing for it. Because if you are going to be anywhere, I want you to be with my old quarterback because I trust him, I know how he is. Great match for him. He was real excited about it.

GB will regret cutting Nelson and not Cobb IMO, but to Adams for helping his teammate and mentor...
