in the pair Quarterback Aaron Rodgers spoke extensively with them at a team meeting after criticism of the performance of the young Green Bay Packers receivers.
There will be plenty of young wide receivers in the 2022 Green Bay Packers offense, in part due to Davante Adams and Marquez Valdes-Skanter Lin’s exit in the offseason. While some names shine in training camp, last Tuesday quarterback Aaron Rodgers criticized the young perimeter player for a variety of reasons, including consistency, drop and route.
After Rogers’ comments went viral, ESPN’s Rob Dmowski wrote that during a Wednesday morning meeting At the meeting, the quarterback had an “extensive” conversation with the young catcher.

“Aaron tells us what he likes, Or not just based on concepts or what he sees,” says Romeo Doubs, h/t Demovsky.
“He just wants us to see what he sees. So so that we can react faster, faster To play and to be able to dominate and continue to be who we are.”
According to Dmowski, Rodgers didn’t call a meeting. Also in the meeting were all the quarterbacks, coaches involved in the passing game, as well as Randall Cobb and Lazard. Two veteran wide receivers also spoke.
Doubs was one of three wide receivers selected by the Packers in last year’s NFL draft. He shined early in training camp and was praised by Rodgers. However, in the aforementioned practice against the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday, he dropped on what Rodgers called “the best pitch of the day.”
Other new faces on the roster include a second-round pick from North Dakota, Christian Watson and Nebraska California’s seventh-round pick Samori Toure. In addition to signing Sammy Watkins in free agency, they’ll also play alongside seasoned passers on the depth charts of Cobb and Lazard.
The Packers have Super Bowl aspirations, even though Adams is no longer Rodgers’ primary target in the passing game. They certainly have a chance to do so because their defense has improved this offseason and the NFC offers an easier path to Super Bowl 57 than the AFC. However, Rodgers is letting young receivers know that mistakes are not tolerated, even in training camp.
