Amari Rodgers – WR (Green Bay Packers)

Of the new players added to the Packers‘ roster this offseason, rookie Amari Rodgers is easily the guy the Vikings should be the most concerned about.

Like the previously mentioned Kalif Raymond, Rodgers can hurt Minnesota in a variety of different ways. He can line up as a receiver on the outside or in the slot, he could be utilized in the backfield a few times a game, and he is capable of taking a punt return the other way for six points.

In Green Bay, some are expecting Rodgers to take on a similar role that Randall Cobb had for multiple seasons before he left the team in 2019. Like the Packers rookie, Cobb was a dangerous returner, and he was someone who could line up in multiple spots on offense.

Cobb provided the Vikings with several headaches during his time in Green Bay. If the Packers figure out how to get the most out of Rodgers’ skill-set, he could end up giving Minnesota some headaches of his own.
