San Francisco general manager John Lynch denies using a phrase that offended Davante Adams while speaking to his agent during free agency talks.

Davante Adams had a lot of suitors after the New York Jets released him this offseason. He ultimately chose the Los Angeles Rams after an "aggressive" pursuit and a two-year, $46 million contract to stay closer to his hometown of East Palo Alto,

Before Davante Adams signed with the Los Angeles Rams, the San Francisco 49ers made a pitch to the six-time Pro Bowler but not at the price he was looking for. Speaking to The Athletic's Michael Silver, Adams said, "I'm not a wholesale-type dude" in discussing the 49ers trying to get him to sign a lower-cost contract.
