GREEN BAY, Wis. -- On the day he claimed Brayden Narveson off waivers in late August, Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst made an admission about his approach to kickers and punters.
"I'm probably not as patient with specialists as I should be," Gutekunst said on Aug. 28.
Narveson knows he's testing Gutekunst's patience. In fact, the rookie kicker wondered after he missed two field goals in last Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Minnesota Vikings if his boss might have run out of patience with him.
"If I'm being honest, most places, you never know if you're going to come back after a game like that and even get a chance to go throughout the week and whatnot," Narveson said Wednesday.
