Former Cal star and current Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers provided his first reaction to the Davante Adams trade during Tuesday's Pat McAfee Show.

Obviously Rodgers is pumped, saying he heard about the trade from Adams about 12:45 a.m. Tuesday morning, a few hours after the disappointing 23-20 loss to Buffalo. Rodgers said he was "pissed" driving home through traffic after the game, didn't look at any messages, but after seeing a text from Adams, he called Adams back and got the news.

Adams even made an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show with Rodgers at Rodgers' house.

We tend to forget that Adams and Rodgers are both Northern California products. Rodgers attended Pleasant Valley High School in Chico, California, and Butte College in Oroville, California, before coming to Cal in Berkeley.

Adams was born in East Palo Alto, California, attended Palo Alton High school and played football at Fresno State.
