Packers off to a slow start: Robert Tonyan

It’s a positive Robert Tonyan was simply able to return to game-action at this point following his ACL tear one year ago. Unfortunately, he’s provided little more than a warm body on the field.

Tonyan is no stranger to getting off to slow starts. Last year, he only recorded 11 receptions for 92 yards through the first six games of the season before turning it on right before his injury (he has five receptions for 47 yards in two games this year). With a lack of offensive pass-catching weapons elsewhere, the Packers desperately need Tonyan to find his 2020 form and get going.
