Packers take lead over Vikings on Aaron Rodgers to Davante Adams TD
A pair of touchdown passes from Aaron Rodgers to Davante Adams gave the Green Bay Packers a lead over the Minnesota Vikings in the fourth quarter Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium.
The Packers have scored touchdowns on three straight possessions and now hold a slim advantage at 24-23 with 7:49 left in the fourth quarter.
Rodgers hit Adams for a 10-yard score with 3:35 left in the third quarter and then found Adams again from 18 yards out on 3rd-and-6 with just under eight minutes to go to put the Packers up.
The latest scoring drive for the Packers traveled 94 yards in 12 plays and took up a little over seven minutes of game clock. On the touchdown, Rodgers attempted to call a timeout before the snap but didn’t get it, and Adams ran a great route to get open for the score.
