Packers remain ‘very bullish’ on potential of WR Amari Rodgers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Amari Rodgers isn’t going anywhere. Despite a disappointing rookie season, general manager Brian Gutekunst still has big plans for last year’s third-round pick.

“We’re very, very bullish on Amari Rodgers and what he can do for this football team,” said Gutekunst on Wednesday.

So much for not having Rodgers on your 53-man roster prediction. Gutekunst commended Rodgers for getting in great shape this offseason and mentioned how players vary in how it takes to get comfortable in the offense. According to Gutekunst, some players are able to catch on pretty fast, but for most others, it might not happen until into their second or even third seasons.
