Time to Slow Down the Jeff Janis Hype Train

There is a serious hype train about Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jeff Janis that is gaining a lot of steam lately, and it's like an unstoppable locomotive.

Should the Packers pay attention to the buzz and involve him more in the offense? Can he be the savior in an injured and stagnant offense?

In short, no. Not yet.

Ever since the Packers drafted Janis from Division II Saginaw Valley State in the seventh round of the 2014 draft, many Packers fans have heralded him as the second coming of Don Hutson and James Lofton.

Much of this was in jest, and continues strong to this very day.
