QB pleased with second-year WR’s development
Green Bay Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling has “really jumped out” since spring practices, according to QB Aaron Rodgers.
“There’s a big difference between a guy who can time fast and play fast. And playing fast is where the confidence comes,” Rodgers told James Jones of NFL Network. (NFL Network)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Valdes-Scantling flashed almost immediately after Geronimo Allison was lost for the season, but Rodgers seemed to ignore him for a long stretch near the end of the season. Even if Allison grabs the slot role as expected in 2019, MVS has legitimate WR3 upside in fantasy as a field-stretcher who won’t see much safety help working opposite Davante Adams.
