Jaire Alexander en route to becoming a leader in Packers' defense

Jaire Alexander vocalized his aspirations during the offseason, fixating his sky-high expectations on becoming one of the league's premier cornerbacks in his second year in the league.

But for now, the Green Bay Packers' No. 18 overall pick in 2018 has to focus on who's lined up across from him most of the time in training camp: Davante Adams.

Adams, the Packers' top offensive receiving target, has had the privilege of sporting a front-row seat to Alexander's development and any improvements he's made since his rookie year. If you ask Adams, he's more than impressed with Alexander's inflated levels of confidence, as well as his professionalism for such a young defender.
