Amari Rodgers Fantasy

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Amari Rodgers caught all four of his targets for 39 yards, adding three carries for 17 yards during their preseason loss to the Kansas City Chiefs Thursday. It was the sophomore's best-receiving performance of the preseason as he continues to battle his way up the depth chart. With six total carries throughout the preseason, the Packers coaching staff is showing their desire to get the ball in his hands. While the former third-round pick has not blown anyone away with his touches, his dual-threat ability should secure his roster spot heading into the regular season. Rodgers should be off the radar for fantasy managers unless a slew of injuries were to occur at the wide receiver position in Green Bay.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Amari Rodgers caught two passes for five yards, adding two carries for 15 yards during their 20-10 win over the Saints on Friday. Of their top-six receivers, only Rodgers and rookie Romeo Doubs participated in the contest, providing an opportunity for Rodgers to showcase his talent. He was targeted five times but failed to surpass five receiving yards and does not appear in line to challenge any of the top-three receivers Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins, and Randall Cobb for a starting role. Rodgers may be ahead of rookie Christian Watson (knee) because of his injury but will likely fall behind him once he's healthy, making him fifth or sixth on the depth chart and a player to avoid in drafts.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Amari Rodgers finished his rookie year with only four catches (eight targets) for 45 yards. He also spent time as a return man on special teams. However, with a miserable inaugural season behind him, wide receivers coach Jason Vrabel recently touted Rodgers, stating, "he already looks faster and stronger than he ever did. He's in the best shape of his life." Unquestionably, the Packers are looking for someone to take over as the No. 1 option after Davante Adams was sent to Vegas. Though Rodgers may not be that person, he is worth consideration from managers looking to hit a home run very late in fantasy drafts ahead of the 2022-23 season.
