Netflix's latest docuseries 'Receiver' shed some light on the apparent rift between Las Vegas Raiders star Davante Adams and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.
Following the success of last year's 'Quarterback' docuseries, cameras followed several pass catchers throughout the 2023 NFL season. 'Receiver' premiered on Netflix earlier this week. The docuseries gives a behind-the-scenes look at the 2023 seasons of Davante Adams, Justin Jefferson, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel and Amon-Ra St. Brown. Notably, Adams did not always appear to be on the same page as quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo last season.
Garoppolo's apparent failure to deliver passes with any level of consistency last year seemed to be a sticking point for Adams. 'This is f---ing pathetic, bro,' Adams said after Garoppolo overthrew a pass during a game against the Detroit Lions. 'Just throw the f---ing ball, man! F---. Tired of this f---ing bulls---,' Adams continued as he slammed his helmet on the ground near the bench.
In a separate sequence, Adams appears to voice his general frustration about playing with Garoppolo. The wide receiver also suggested that the quarterback play would make him want to leave the Raiders. 'I gotta get the f--- outta here before I lose my f---ing life,' Adams said. 'I ain’t never been hit so many f---ing times in my career. Every game, I get f---ed up.' Garoppolo entered the 2023 campaign as the Raiders starter.
Garoppolo inked a three-year, $73.75 million contract with Las Vegas last year. He finished the season with seven touchdowns and nine interceptions. He had a six-year stint with the 49ers before joining the Raiders. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
