Adams, meanwhile, was traded to the New York Jets last season but has since landed with the Rams.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that means Adams and Jimmy G are teammates once again, although the former won&#8217;t be catching passes from the latter unless Stafford gets hurt.<\/p>\n<p>With the Rams at training camp, that has already unfolded.

That means it&#8217;s quite conceivable Garoppolo could throw passes to Adams during the regular season, too.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Garoppolo has since addressed the fact that he and Adams are teammates once again, but there was no mention of the receiver&#8217;s infamous comments.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Pumped, man,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=gNuOy-1kDzc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Garoppolo said;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Garoppolo said<\/a> of teaming up with Adams. &#8220;Haven\u2019t seen\u00a0him in a while.
