Davante Adams Says Frustration Led to Deleted Tweet

SGKing

If you’re frustrated, remember to stay away from Twitter. The Green Bay Packers’ receiver admitted that frustration led to his since-deleted tweet on the morning of his team’s most recent game Oct. 5 against the Falcons, when he said it was the team’s decision, not his, to hold him out.

“Sorry fans and friends I wont be on the field tonight,” Adams tweeted early Monday. “I’ve done everything I need to do and proved Im ready but I guess I don’t know my body as well as others. Good luck out there my boys.”

Now he’s explaining why he sent out that tweet:

“It’s not too much to read into it to say I was frustrated,” Adams said on Wednesday, according to ESPN‘s Rob Demovsky. “Obviously, I’m a competitor. I think everybody knows that. Everybody knows what I’m about and how I play football. I don’t necessarily, obviously, understand what the club’s interest and everything that goes with it. “But being a competitor, like I said, and me being who I am and how I’m wired, even if I’m not 100 percent, which I said obviously at that point I felt great to play. But even if I’m not 100 percent, I mean, I’ve played few football games feeling 100 percent. So at the end of the day, a lot of that factored into the decision.”

Adams appears on track to play Sunday for the undefeated Packers (4-0) against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-2). Twitter can be a real problem with athletes these days.
