Packers WR Davante Adams says he won't play Monday

Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams broke a bit of news on Monday morning, revealing via Twitter that he won’t be playing against the Atlanta Falcons on “Monday Night Football.”

In case the tweet from Adams gets deleted, here’s the full, unedited copy: “Sorry fans and friends I wont be on the field tonight. 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”.
