Aaron Rodgers is back to ‘playing the way I like’
“It’s nice to be back”, he added.
The 31-year-old QB veteran Aaron Rodgers didn’t need much of dynamic scrambles in the Week 1 of the 2015 NFL Preseason game opener to feel back to his old self, because he known that he’s 100 percent in good form since the spring.
Aaron Rodgers finished last season confined to the pocket after straining his calf in a 20-3 win over Tampa Bay in Week 15.
He’ll get a chance to show not only that he’s closer to being all the way back from last year’s season-ending injury, but also that he can be the next man up at the premier position on the offensive line. But Vujnovich, 24, spent all of last season on the practice squad and has never played in a regular season game.
What do an NFL MVP quarterback and soon-to-be-superhero do in their down time?
Jeremy Vujnovich, a first-year player from Louisiana College, is playing left tackle for both the second- and third-string offenses with Barclay earning starters’ reps this week. The early vibe is Seattle is down a bit over past year. “Mike maybe wants us to get a little more work in the preseason, which is fine”, Rodgers said.
It was one of the most monumental collapses in NFL history as Seattle somehow pulled out a 28-22 overtime victory in the NFC championship game. He’s ready for whatever workload awaits him in the preseason, though it’s possible he could sit out the Packers’ preseason finale against New Orleans on September 3. We got an bad lot of man-to-man coverage down the stretch there, I don’t know if that would have been the case if he’d been able to move.
“Obviously it’s a strength of his”. He had some mistakes in there, and he’ll be the first to admit it. But it just comes to a point where you have to trust yourself, trust your technique, forget about [the knee] and go on.
