Brett Hundley, Davante Adams have a Rodgers-to-Nelson-like connection
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson have the kind of connection that playcallers dream about. As a quarterback-receiver combination, no one has more touchdowns in Green Bay Packers history.
Last season, they broke the mark of 58 set by Brett Favre and Antonio Freeman, and reached 65 touchdowns before Rodgers broke his collarbone in Week 6 this season.
