"The biggest thing that helped Jarrett is that he became an expert of our offense," Rodgers said. "And he spent a lot of time studying our offense, getting in my ear, wanting to hear what he needed to do to get on the field, what I expected of him in certain situations and certain route concepts. And if you're consistently in the right place at the right time, you can't help but make plays. The ball is going to find you."
Multiple times in training camp, quarterback Aaron Rodgers has expressed concern about where some younger players are within the offense as the Sept. 4 regular-season opener at defending Super Bowl-champion Seattle approaches.
"My whole mindset coming in this came was obviously continue to progress,

"Consistency - that was my overall focus, to be consistent in everything I do, whether it be releases, route running, run blocking, everything."
"They need to catch up," Rodgers told reporters. "I think some of them are playing the right way, and some of them have got to catch up. They're going to need to if they want to be on the field."
"That's just how I carry myself," Boykin said. "You guys can write the articles, you can tell the stories, but at the end of the day, I'm the one who has to go out there and prove what I've got to prove."
"You get fined for not doing them,

On Monday, Rodgers was at it again.
One person Rodgers hasn't felt that way about is Boykin, who played only 10 total snaps in the first four games of last season - he didn't play a single snap on offense in the opener and one snap against Washington in Week 2 - and hadn't caught a single pass until Cobb's leg injury at Baltimore on Oct. 13. After a 43-yard catch against the Ravens that day, Boykin went on to finish with 49 receptions for 681 yards and three touchdowns.
It's not that Boykin is antisocial,

Last week, Rodgers said of his young wide receivers and tight ends, "If you cannot line up right, if you can't get the checks and if you can't get what you're supposed to do every time - then there's no way you can possibly be on the field when I'm out there."
Boykin didn't need the Packers to draft three wide receivers - Adams, Jared Abbrederis (fifth) and Jeff Janis (seventh) - to keep him from getting complacent.
