Aaron Rodgers: Allen Lazard ready to make jump to No. 1 WR for Packers

Since taking over as the starting quarterback in 2008, Aaron Rodgers has always had an established No. 1 wide receiver. From Donald Driver, Greg Jennings, James Jones, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams, Rodgers has always had “that guy.” 

Now as he prepares for his 18th year in the league, the reigning MVP will do so without that proven No. 1 wide receiver. 

“When you walk in the locker room for so many years and you see 87’s locker, that’s Jordy Nelson. You see Davante Adams. It gives you a different feel. You just kind of know that you got that guy. We have some opportunities for some guys to step into that role.”
