Clearly, his productive offseason is already paying dividends. Last season, it’s doubtful Rodgers could have made a play like that. Rodgers made a man miss at the 20, juked another defender at the 5 and dove for the pylon for a 22-yard TD that gave Green Bay a 21-20 lead. Then early in the fourth quarter, Rodgers caught a short pass at the 22-yard line from Danny Etling. In 2021, the Packers averaged an NFL-worst 17.7 yards per kickoff with a long of 41. Rodgers had a 50-yard kickoff return late in the first quarter. The results were evident against the 49ers. Lost all of it my torso, so I feel like I’m getting in that area where I was in college as far as where I want to be to move how I want to, and play receiver the way I should.” “I lost like six pounds, I lost four percent body fat.
“This offseason, I locked in on getting my body right,” Rodgers said in June. Rodgers, a third-round draft pick in 2021, reshaped his body this offseason with hopes of proving he’s not a bust. I loved his command and his poise in the pocket.”ĪMARI RODGERS: The second year wideout had a dreadful rookie season, catching just four passes and showing little to no burst.
But I thought, all-in-all, it was a solid day. Yeah, sure, there were a couple throws I’m sure he’d like to have back. He moved the ball, he pushed the ball down the field. “We had basically two drops and then on the other one, we had two receivers run the wrong route. “Well, those were three unfortunate interceptions,” LaFleur said at halftime. He also completed 13-of-24 passes for 176 yards, despite the fact the Packers had all of their starting skill players inactive. In between, Love threw a pair of touchdowns - a 33-yarder to Doubs and a 33-yarder to Danny Davis. But LaFleur said on that play, Green Bay had two receivers run the wrong route. On the third, Love made a poor choice trying to force a ball to Amari Rodgers. The first two interceptions came after drops by tight end Tyler Davis and rookie wideout Romeo Doubs.
JORDAN LOVE: If you simply glance at the stat sheet and see Love threw three interceptions, you’ll wonder how he ended up in this category. “Although we do feel good about the group, there's still a lot of growth in front of them.” “You guys have heard me say it a million times, as far as a leadership role, absolutely, I think it's easy to point to Dave and Elgton who have been so instrumental in our success here and are great players and we've got a lot of young guys,” LaFleur said.
