Players can’t win jobs in the first preseason game, but they sure as hell can lose them. Just ask Quinten Rollins. After the Green Bay Packers drafted two cornerbacks in consecutive picks this spring, Rollins sat squarely on the bubble coming off an Achilles injury last season. His 2018 started with a 38-yard catch-and-run completion to a Titans fourth-string receiver. Then he muffed a punt.
For whatever else happened during the 31-17 win at Lambeau Field Thursday night, Rollins’ job will be on the line every snap he takes from this point forward. It’s fair to wonder how many more snaps he’ll even get with as scarce as practice reps can be with 90 guys vying for playing time.
