Davante Adams has become the latest opponent to dunk on CJ Gardner-Johnson.

Adams and the Los Angeles Rams played on this week’s edition of “Monday Night Football” against Gardner-Johnson and the Buffalo Bills. The Week 5 matchup took place at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif.

In the second quarter, the Rams had a 1st-and-goal play from the Bills’ 4-yard line. Adams ended up beating the Bills safety Gardner-Johnson, who was watching him in coverage, with a corner route for the touchdown.

After securing the TD grab, Adams began to taunt Gardner-Johnson. He followed a retreating Gardner-Johnson and had some heated words for him.

The former Super Bowl champion Gardner-Johnson is one of the biggest trash talkers in the league. Even just this season alone, Gardner-Johnson has run his mouth at everybody from his former teams to even Shedeur Saunders.

But that also makes Gardner-Johnson a prime target for blowback when things do not go his way. Now Adams has added himself to the list of opponents who have taunted Gardner-Johnson right back (including the likes of Baker Mayfield and Deebo Samuel).
