Packers release WR Amari Rodgers & RB Kylin Hill

I was not expecting that. I was thinking Amari would be focusing on WR duties and if flopped there, cut.

Green Bay sent third- and fourth-round selections (92nd and 135th overall) for the 85th overall pick on Amari Rodgers. Ouch.

I sorta understand the Amari Rodgers release but I’m surprised by it.

I definitely don’t understand letting Hill go. What’s the reason? Who are they replacing them with?

I think Hill will be resigned to the PS.
Really don't. Know about Amari.
Sounds like Cobb will be ready for Thursady with the Amari move.

Crazy that Amari's Das coached Randall in College and Randall worked with Amari when he was in Hugh School .

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

I expected Amari to be released at the end of the season. Not mid season. Then again, he doesn't offer anything. He would be in the WR mix if he could play WR. 16 targets in 2 seasons shows that he doesn't have it as a WR.
Here is yet another 3rd round draft pick for Gute that has failed.
Rodgers in 21
Deguara in 20 has been rather meh
Sternberger in 19
Oren Burks in 18
Gute is 0-4 and nothing to show for the 22 selection Sean Rhyan. (Yet.)

I would have hoped that they could possibly trade Rodgers. Was thinking the Jaguars would have taken a flier to see if they might get some of the college success with Trevor Lawrence? I guess not. Unless the plan was as mentioned to try and stick him on the practice squad. Would Rodgers want that or just a fresh start elsewhere?

Amari had 2 years to prove he belongs on the team. Sadly, he failed.
I feel sorry for him, but there comes a time where they have to do what's best for the team.
I wish him well, wherever he ends up.
