GREEN BAY — Since the beginning, Jared Abbrederis has had confidence in what he can do on a football field.
It’s just been a matter of getting a chance to show it.
The third-year receiver, vying to make the Packers’ initial 53-man roster for the first time, achieved his first goal in completing a fully healthy preseason Thursday in Kansas City.
He saved his best outing for last with two catches for 49 yards and five punt returns for 71 yards in a 17-7 loss to the Chiefs in the Packers’ preseason finale.
“It’s frustrating when you get injured and you don’t have the opportunity to be out on the field,” said Abbrederis after the game.
