On Wednesday, she arrived at the Jets’ facility, where she had the opportunity to watch Aaron Rodgers and Co. in action.
The timing of Adams’ arrival couldn’t have been much better, as it came a day after Rodgers went viral after he and wideout Garret Wilson were spotted having what appeared to be a heated discussion on the field.
The clip quickly spread around social media with fans theorizing about what this could mean for the Jets.
However, as far as Adams is concerned, it seems all is well in New Jersey.
“Ummm Aaron Rodgers is out here doing the Ric Flair walk, playing pranks on coaches and throwing dime after dime… Where’s this ‘fuming’ AR everybody?” she tweeted.
Later, Adams had the opportunity to address the rumors head-on with the man himself, live on her show.
First off, Rodgers was thrilled that Adams had noticed his Flair walk, commenting, “Nobody even knows what that is.”
“It’s a lot of bulls**t, you know that,” he went on to say.
“I talked to [Wilson] about this, there’s appearance and there’s the reality.
“What it appears to be can be taken and you can run with it.
“The reality was, and you can’t really tell ’cause I watched the video, the second conversation we were kind of laughing at each other.
“I’m teasing him. He’s kind of like the little brother getting teased, and then he kind of snaps back, and then I tease him back.
“It’s a whole lot of nothing in the end. There are good conversations that we have when the fans and the media are not zooming in on us.
“He’s a passionate guy, I’m a passionate guy. But a lot of that stuff is literally not what the reality is.”
Wilson too had his opportunity to weigh in on the rumors.

He mirrored Rodgers’ explanation, adding how both they are always looking to improve and that their exchange wasn’t how it appeared.
“I haven’t always been able to have conversations like that with my quarterback so I don’t take it for granted,” Wilson added.
Wilson also commented that they are “trying to build something and it takes those hard conversations now and then,” going on to confirm that he and Rodgers “are on the same page.”
Rodgers’ long-awaited comeback following last season’s devastating Achilles injury can begin in earnest on September 9 when the Jets head to Santa Clara to take on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1.
Then he and Wilson will have their opportunity to show the world exactly what they are “trying to build.”
