Amari Rodgers: I'm showing Packers they can trust me in any situation

Wide receiver Amari Rodgers is hoping to make the most of the offseason shakeup to the Packers wide receiver group.

Rodgers only caught four passes and played 103 offensive snaps after being drafted in the third round last year. He also returned punts and kickoffs, but said that learning how to play with quarterback Aaron Rodgers and “just getting acclimated to the speed of the game took some time” once he hit the NFL.

With a year under his belt, Rodgers earned some praise from wide receivers coach Jason Vrable for his efforts in the offseason program and the wideout said at a youth football camp that he plans to keep impressing the team once he gets to training camp.

“The room is wide open,” Rodgers said, via Alberto Camargo of the Knoxville News Sentinel. “I’m showing that I can play any position and that I know the playbook and [coaches] can trust me, no matter what situation.”

“just getting acclimated to the speed of the game took some time”

I am not sure whether he is saying "I couldn't make reads quickly enough" or "I was just too damn slow"

Let us hope it was the former, not the latter, as it is very difficult to get physically faster at this stage in his life.

Regardless, I don't think he is around much longer...1 year tops...I hope I am wrong.

Go Packers!!!!
