With Marquez Valdes-Scantling still out with injury, Rodgers doesn’t have another legitimate wide receiver to throw to other than Davante Adams. Sure, he has been in sync with Randall Cobb on some crucial throws, but Cobb hasn’t consistently shown up in games.

Marvin Jones Jr. could change all of that for Green Bay. He can line up on the outside or in the slot and beat his man downfield. If Rodgers can put the ball on him, he’s pretty good at making contested catches. This skill would give Green Bay a second guy besides Valdes-Scantling who can push the defense vertically. He’d be a fun add to this Packers’ offense.
