It was expected that the Packers offense wouldn’t look the same after star wideout Davante Adams was traded away. But the team’s 23–7 loss to the Vikings in Week 1 showed just how inconsistent the current Green Bay receiving corps really is. And quarterback Aaron Rodgers hasn’t been shy about addressing it.
The four-time NFL MVP ripped the young wideouts on his team during training camp for dropping passes, running the wrong routes and making bad route decisions. But whatever he said to them apparently didn’t sink in, and Rodgers addressed what needs to change.
“The most important thing is to communicate with them,” Rodgers told reporters Wednesday, per the Wisconsin State Journal. “And figure out what style works best for them. Direct communication, though, always kind of cuts through the uneasiness and the anxiety and any of the gray area in the things that we do.”
