Los Angeles Rams<\/a> receiver Davante Adams has been around the block in the NFL long enough to see a lot of different cornerbacks. And yet, he’s strung together six consecutive 1,000-yard seasons and accrued more than 11,000 career receiving yards and 103 total touchdowns.<\/p>\n

While he may not be the No. 1 overall receiver in the league, Adams’ style of play separates him from the pack. And it’s why two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson named him one of the hardest receivers to guard in the NFL alongside Justin Jefferson and Tyreek Hill.<\/p>\n

Jones told Whistle Sports that Adams’ “tempo and craftiness” make him a tough man to cover. Johnson would know, too, after playing against Adams three times when Johnson’s Chicago Bears<\/a> faced Adams when he was on the Green Bay Packers. Johnson also faced Adams on the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> in 2023.<\/p>\n

Now in L.A., Adams wouldn’t face Johnson unless the two teams saw each other in the postseason. But Adams still has the chance to reach some milestones<\/a> to continue to cement his NFL legacy.<\/p>\n
