Packers receiver Janis works hard to catch on with Rodgers

Green Bay — If you're going to break through on the Green Bay Packers roster as a wide receiver, you're going to have to win over quarterback Aaron Rodgers first.

That's what Jeff Janis has been trying to do this off-season, especially with a few extra balls thrown his way at practice.

But there are some plays he really enjoys with Rodgers.

"I like running deep routes with Aaron," Janis said.

Likewise, Rodgers seems to enjoy challenging Janis with deep balls. The 23-year-old receiver is well-known for his 40-yard dash time.

Janis said his best time was unofficially 4.
