Quarless was eligible to return this week (12). I haven't seen/heard any word on his status.

This guy lacks athleticism, and the last time I checked, a real vital part of being a professional football player. Please boys, show me some stats to debunk my theory.

Yea, he's not Antonio Gates, but he's fast and athletic enough! If he had just caught the 4 passes I mentioned above, and this probably would have happened if 2014 Aaron Rodgers was QBing this team, he'd have 4 more catches for about 100 yards and 2 more TDs. Then most would agree Rodgers is ascending; why is he not ascending because Aaron Rodgers missed his throws?

On the play 3rd Q 10:22 Rodgers, Cobb and Adams were lined up right. Rodgers was on LOS [24 yard line] and Cobb and Adams a yard back. all 3 run vertical til R.Rod makes his break at that moment Rodgers is at 9, Cobb is at 11 and Adams is at 10. Trust me he is fast enough and if he doesn't turn into a top 25-33% TE next year it wont be because he's too slow or athletic enough. He is way ahead of where Q, Finley, Taylor, DJ Williams, and Clark Harris, were in their 2nd years as a complete TE.

Doesn't look fast to me at all. He's the slowest TE we've had since Bubba Franks.

I've still got faith R. Rodgers will solidify his spot as the starting TE, he's not going to set the world on fire with his speed but he's got the size/intelligence to be a good all around player. I believe in having 2 starting caliber TE though which hopefully the Packers address next year in the draft. Quarless has been passable and the Packers will improve with him back imo, but its time they take a flyer on a Finley type replacement.

He's fast enough to get open. He had a 20 yard TD called back this past week. Just let him develop, he'll get there.

Ted drafted DBs this year. TE and LT are on the docket next year. And maybe an ILB.
