With the sixth roster spot at wide receiver up for grabs on the Green Bay Packers depth chart, the preseason opener provided a reminder of Bo Melton, who saw his share of playing time on special teams and made a key block in the run game on a scoring play.
During the Cincinnati game, Melton had just one reception for three yards, but he ended up playing 12 special teams snaps and did so on a few different phases, including the kick return, kick coverage, and punt return units. He ended up being on the field for 38% of all special teams snaps — the fifth-highest rate on the team.
