Aaron Rodgers: Steelers ‘Had A Good Plan’ To Stop Davante Adams

There were high expectations for New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams in his debut with the team in Week 7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but the Steelers were able to limit Adams. He had had just three catches for 30 yards and was shut out in the second half as Pittsburgh won 37-15. Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers credited Pittsburgh’s game plan for slowing down Adams.

“I think they had a good plan. They played a lot of two-shell. It was a lot of vision zones, but there weren’t a lot of outside freebies,” Rodgers said. “There was a few opportunities we had, but I think we were just kind of easing [Adams] in,” Rodgers said on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday.
