Marquez Valdes-Scantling’s Future with Packers Looking Very Dim

With two back-to-back games without any catches, the last reception for Marquez Valdes-Scantling was in week 8 against the Kansas City Chiefs in which he had a single reception for 4-yards. MVS was drafted by the Packers in the 5th round of the 2018 NFL Draft and currently has a 4-year contract with the Green Bay Packers worth ~$2.7m — so while the Packers are not heavily invested in the guy, his future with the team is dimmer than ever as his snap count opportunities are rapidly dwindling.

Here is the breakdown of snap percentages for Packers’ wide receivers in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers:

Davante Adams 83%
Allen Lazard 46%
Marquez Valdes-Scantling 69%
Geronimo Allison 65%
Jake Kumerow 24%

Here is the breakdown of snap percentages for Packers’ wide receivers in Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers:

Davante Adams 79%
Geronimo Allison 62%
Allen Lazard 44%
Jake Kumerow 34%
Marquez Valdes-Scantling 16%

Despite lining up for 69% of offensive snaps against the Chargers, MVS managed a whopping 0 receptions for, you guessed it, 0 yards.
