Eric Stokes went through a trial-by-fire leading up to his rookie season, and now the Green Bay Packers’ newly drafted wide receiver Christian Watson is getting the same treatment. Last offseason, you may remember Stokes received a crash course from one of the best wide receivers in the game in Davante Adams. It was a valuable lesson that undoubtedly helped him prepare for his first NFL season.
This year, Watson is destined to do the same but with All-Pro corner Jaire Alexander.
“I’m going to make it as hard as I can for those guys because I know on Sunday it’s going to pay off. Iron sharpens iron,” Alexander said earlier this month, via Packers.com. “However I can help to make them better, I’m going to do that.”
