The presence of Randall Cobb is one reason why Aaron Rodgers doesn’t feel especially needed at the voluntary portions of the offseason workout program. The veteran Green Bay Packers pass-catcher is serving as an extension of Rodgers in the wide receiver room during this pivotal learning stage for the young players.
Cobb, now in his 10th season playing with Rodgers, is relaying the message on what the Packers quarterback wants the rookies – second-round pick, Christian Watson, fourth-round pick Romeo Doubs and seventh-round pick Samari Toure – to know as the young players learn the offense.
Put another way: Professor Cobb is teaching “Playing with Aaron Rodgers 101” to the rookies before training camp.
