For essentially the entire second half of Aaron Rodgers’ career, the Packers decided investing at wide receiver really wasn’t something they wanted to do.
That resulted in a pretty bare cupboard outside of Davante Adams, and by the time the team’s relationship with Adams soured, there was nobody left to step up in his absence.
Four years later, the Packers now enjoy the kind of wide receiver room that fans have been asking for pretty much since that famous Sports Illustrated cover. They are deep and
talented, the result of consistent investment at the position over the course of multiple seasons.
The question now is how high this group can climb. They have the talent to succeed. They’ve got as much speed as I’ve ever seen in a Packers wide receiver room. What does that add up to? Assuming the group takes a step forward in the offseason, it could mean big things.
That’s a big assumption, of course. We hoped for a big step forward from 2024 to 2025, and it didn’t really happen. But here’s hoping 2026 sees the Packers’ receivers making a big splash en route to a great offensive performance across the entire season.
