Packers QB Coach Says Aaron Rodgers Doesn’t Need OTAs

Aaron Rodgers has not joined the Packers at the beginning of voluntary organized team activities this week. Quarterbacks coach Tom Clements explained why. 

“Aaron doesn’t need reps at this time of the year,” Clements said last week, per ESPN. “Obviously it’d be nice to have him here, but he’s seen these things 1,000 times and he’ll be ready to go when training camp starts.”

Coach Matt LaFleur wasn’t concerned over the absence of the four-time MVP and said he expects Rodgers to be present for Green Bay’s mandatory minicamp from June 7-9. He also said it’s still possible that Rodgers participate in some of the OTAs later on but stressed they were optional.
