• Packers' Amari Rodgers: Fills bit role in rookie season

  02/03/2022 •

  Rodgers was targeted eight times and caught four passes for 45 yards over 16 appearances in the 2021 season. He also had one carry for 11 yards, returned 20 punts for 166 yards and took back 11 kicks for 199 yards. Rodgers was selected by the Packers in the third round of last year's draft, and it was thought he would have a chance to contribute as a rookie. However, he was buried on the depth chart for most of the campaign and was limited mainly to return work. Rodgers could play a bigger role in Year 2, but his prospects will be uncertain until it is determined which receivers will be back in Green Bay in 2022 and which ones will head elsewhere.

• Packers' Amari Rodgers: Still not seeing many snaps

  10/30/2021 •

  Rodgers had one reception for seven yards and one carry for 11 yards in Thursday's 24-21 victory over the Cardinals. He also returned two punts for 12 yards. With the Packers down their top three wideouts Thursday, Rodgers was on the field for a season-high 16 snaps, and that allowed him to see three targets in the passing game and a season-high two touches on offense. While the rookie third-round pick made a couple positive plays, he was only on the field for 22 percent of the snaps and finished fourth among Packers wideouts in that department. Rodgers could continue getting chances to make plays here or there, but his playing time percentage suggests he will only get a handful of snaps again when his fellow receivers return.

  Rodgers caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-14 victory over the Bears. He also returned two punts for 16 yards. Rodgers has not had many opportunities to contribute in his rookie season, but he made a couple key plays Sunday, picking up good yardage on a punt return in the second quarter and also picking up a first down on a short pass in the third. Despite the positives, he figures to remain in a bit role for the Packers.
