As the Packers wean into the week leading up to Hall of Fame weekend and their first of five undesired preseason games, the position battles are continuing to heat up. Most noticeably with the wide receivers.
A month ago, the predictions for who would make the final 53-man roster - as early as it was - seemed clear. A popular choice not to be one of the last receivers standing was Jared Abbrederis, and rightfully so. Abbrederis is coming off a couple of injury plagued seasons where he missed all of 2014 with a torn ACL and fluctuated in 2015 with a concussion in the opening stages of training camp and a rib injury midway through the regular season.
