Aaron Rodgers ready for bumpy training camp facing Packers ‘really good’ defense

All the moving parts on offense and an impressive collection of talent on the defense has Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers thinking that training camp could be a bit of a bumpy ride for his side of the ball this summer.

Rodgers and the offense lost Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling but added veteran Sammy Watkins and rookies Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Samori Toure to the mix at receiver, while the Packers defense re-signed breakout stars Rasul Douglas and De’Vondre Campbell and added first-round picks Quay Walker and Devonte Wyatt.

As the offense evolves without Adams and new players get up to speed with the scheme, Joe Barry’s defense could dominate big stretches of the summer. And Rodgers doesn’t necessarily think it’s a bad thing.
