News

  • Cut by Colts

    Indianapolis waived Rodgers on Friday.

    Analysis: Rodgers logged a season-high 20 offensive snaps Week 6 versus Jacksonville, but he saw only two targets and didn't bring in either one. Those were the only two targets the wideout was gotten over three contests on the campaign. The Colts claimed cornerback Ameer Speed off waivers from New England in a move corresponding with Rodgers' departure.

  • Increased role

    Rodgers was targeted twice in the passing game but had no receptions in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.

    Analysis: Rodgers played on 20 of the offense's 78 snaps as he got more plaing time with Alec Pierce suffering a shoulder injury. Rodgers had played just five snaps on offense this season before Sunday. If Pierce is to miss time, it may be Isaiah McKenzie who gets a larger role since he's been more productive as a pass catcher (two receptions Sunday while playing just four snaps on offense), but Rodgers was the player working more as the third and fourth receiver Sunday.

  • Joins Indianapolis roster

    Indianapolis signed Rodgers off its practice squad Tuesday.

    Analysis: Rodgers played just four snaps in his 2023 debut Sunday, but the Colts evidently saw enough to promote him to the active roster with Ashton Dulin (knee) on injured reserve. Rookie third-rounder Josh Downs has struggled a bit to find his footing out of the slot up to this point, so Rodgers may be closer to the field than it appears.

  • Reverts to practice squad

    Rodgers reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday.

    Analysis: Rodgers played four offensive snaps Sunday against the Rams but recorded no stats. He joined the Colts' practice squad on Aug. 31 after splitting time with the Packers and Texans last season.

  • Elevated to active roster

    The Colts elevated Rodgers to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers' elevation is his first of the season. He projects to provide depth at receiver while also chipping in on special teams. It will be his first time suiting up since last season's stint with the Texans.

  • Back in Indy

    The Colts signed Rodgers to the practice squad Wednesday.

    Analysis: Rogers was once a well-regarded prospect but has had trouble finding his footing in the NFL. He did appear in 16 games in 2022, tallying 16 receptions for 204 yards and one touchdown split between the Packers and Texans. He could have landed in the right spot to have a chance to contribute, as the Colts currently have only four healthy receivers on their depth chart.

  • Won't make team

    Rodgers was waived by the Colts on Tuesday, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers' difficulties with catching on with a club since being selected in the third round of the 2021 Draft by the Packers will continue. The Clemson product joined the team in early August after being let go by the Texans. The 23-year-old secured 12 of 17 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown for Houston last season in six contests, while catching four of eight targets for 50 yards in 10 contests with Green Bay during the 2022 campaign.

  • Picked up by Indianapolis

    Rodgers agreed to terms with the Colts on Wednesday.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick has found his third home in two years after being waived by both the Packers and Texans. Rodgers has tallied 20 receptions for 249 yards and one touchdown in his career, but he's mainly been a return man, as he's recorded 626 return yards. He's had issues holding onto the ball, fumbling eight times in just two years, but expect Indianapolis' newest receiver to compete for the kick and punt returner job ahead of the coming season.

  • Gets cut loose

    Rodgers was waived by the Texans on Sunday.

    Analysis: Rodgers saw action in six contests for Houston last season, after being waived by the Packers midseason. He finished his time with the Texans having caught 12 of 17 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown. A third-round selection out of Clemson in 2021, Rodgers has yet to carve out a steady role for himself in two seasons. He'll now work to earn an opportunity elsewhere.

  • Sets himself up for 2023

    Rodgers caught three of four targets for 22 yards in a 32-31 victory over Indianapolis in Week 18.

    Analysis: Rodgers was given an opportunity due to a late-season injury to Nico Collins (foot) and likely played his way into the 2023 mix at wideout. Rodgers caught 12 of 17 targets for 154 yards and a touchdown over the final five games. The Texans will be hiring a new head coach and probably a new offensive coordinator, so personnel decisions are up in the air, but Rodgers has two years left on his contract. If the organization parts with Brandin Cooks, there could be a starting spot available for a…read more

  • Remains in rotation

    Rodgers caught both of his targets for 12 yards and ran once for four yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Rodgers has been given a fresh start in Houston after the Packers released the 2021 third-round draft pick in November. He's made a couple of big catches for the Texans -- a 28-yard touchdown reception in the near-upset of Dallas and 37-yarder on the go-ahead drive in Week 16's win over Tennessee. Rodgers has nine catches on 13 targets for 132 yards (14.7 YPC) over the last four games.

  • Limited role in win

    Rodgers caught one of two targets for 37 yards in Saturday's 19-14 win over Tennessee.

    Analysis: Rodgers' catch was a big one, setting up Houston's go-ahead score with just under three minutes left. With Brandin Cooks returning from a calf injury, Rodgers played just 14 snaps and operated as the No. 4 wideout. He's caught seven of 11 targets for 120 yards and a touchdown over the last three games.

  • Serves as third wideout

    Rodgers caught two of three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.

    Analysis: Rodgers, who caught four passes and his first career touchdown in Week 14, once again benefitted from Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) being unavailable. He was third among wideouts in playing time (32 snaps), behind Chris Moore (55) and Phillip Dorsett (54), and he out-targeted Dorsett for a second straight week.

  • First career touchdown

    Rodgers recorded four receptions on five targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Rodgers appeared in his second game with the Texans and was thrust into a prominent role due to the absence of Brandin Cooks (groin) and Nico Collins (foot). He did the majority of his damage on a 28-yard touchdown catch late in the second quarter, the first score of his career. Rodgers will drop back to a peripheral role once either Cooks or Collins is able to return, though it's unclear when that may occur.

  • Could step in as No. 3 wideout

    Rodgers is expected to serve as one of the Texans' top three receivers in Sunday's game against the Cowboys with Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) both ruled out, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: After being claimed off waivers from the Packers on Nov. 16, Rodgers was inactive for the Texans' subsequent two games before finally getting the chance to make his debut in last week's loss to the Browns. Rodgers went without a target on 17 snaps, but his playing time and involvement in the passing game can only go up while Texans starting quarterback Davis Mills is without his top two wideouts this week. Phillip Dorsett and Chris Moore are ahead of Rodgers on the depth chart and are likely to…read more

  • Suits up in Week 13

    Rodgers made his Texans debut in Sunday's 27-14 loss to Cleveland.

    Analysis: Rodgers played 17 snaps but was not given a target. Brandin Cooks' calf injury opened up an opportunity for Rodgers, who was claimed three weeks ago after being released by Green Bay. Phillip Dorsett, however, got most of the snaps made available by Cooks' absence.

  • Remains sidelined

    Rodgers (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Rodgers was also a healthy scratch Week 11 after being claimed off waivers by the Texans on Nov. 16. He'll work to earn the opportunity to make his his team debut Week 13 against the Browns.

  • Not suiting up Sunday

    Rodgers (coach's decision) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against Washington.

    Analysis: Rodgers was claimed off waivers from Green Bay on Wednesday, but he'll require more practice time before he's game ready for Houston. The 23-year-old caught four of eight targets for 50 yards in 10 games with the Packers this season. He also worked as both a kickoff and punt returner but was waived after his fifth fumble of the campaign.

  • Picked up by Houston

    The Texans claimed Rodgers off waivers from the Packers on Wednesday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers will end up with Houston just one day after being waived by Green Bay, where he struggled with special-teams turnovers while failing to provide much receiving production during his first two seasons. Now, the 2021 third-round pick could have a chance to turn things around thanks to this change of scenery, as the Texans' primary punt returner, Desmond King, has averaged just 6.9 yards over 13 attempts this season. Rodgers should also compete with veterans Chris Moore, Phillip Dorsett and…read more

  • Time over in Green Bay

    The Packers waived Rodgers on Tuesday.

    Analysis: Green Bay's decision to move on from Rodgers comes after he played just six snaps on offense and lost his second fumble of the season while returning a punt in Sunday's 31-28 overtime win over Dallas. Green Bay's receiving corps could get healthier this week with the possible return of Randall Cobb (ankle) from injured reserve, and with Rodgers having lost trust as a return man, the move doesn't come as a major surprise.

  • Loses work in Week 10

    Rodgers played six snaps on offense in Sunday's 31-28 overtime victory over the Cowboys but was not targeted. He also returned two punts for 13 yards and lost a fumble.

    Analysis: Rodgers averaged 20.3 snaps over Weeks 6-9, but he was fazed out Week 10 with four of his fellow receivers soaking up nearly all the snaps played by Packers wideouts. Rodgers also lost snaps on special teams, as he was pulled in favor of Keisean Nixon after losing a fumble for the second time this season. Rodgers was selected in the third round of the 2021 Draft, and the Packers have given him chances to contribute. However, he hasn't capitalized and could be running out of opportunities to do…read more

  • Active in Week 10

    Rodgers (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's Week 10 clash against the Cowboys, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers popped up on the injury report Friday after participating in limited fashion in that day's practice, but he'll be available to Aaron Rodgers on a day when both Randall Cobb (IR-ankle) and Romeo Doubs (ankle) will be absent from the pass-catching corps. Rodgers still figures to slot into a relatively modest role, however, as he's produced just a 4-50 line on eight targets through nine games.

  • Questionable with quad injury

    Rodgers is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys with a hamstring injury, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers didn't appear on the Packers' first two Week 10 injury reports before getting a designation for Sunday's game after the hamstring issue limited his participation in Friday's session. Though the second-year receiver hasn't been an integral part of the Green Bay offense for most of the season, his status looms larger than normal while Randall Cobb (ankle) is on injured reserve and with Romeo Doubs (ankle) expected to miss several weeks. Allen Lazard and Sammy Watkins are in line to serve…read more

  • Another quiet appearance

    Rodgers was targeted three times and caught one pass for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Bills. He also returned one punt for three yards.

    Analysis: Rodgers' opportunities are on the rise, as he has played at least 30 percent of the snaps in three straight games and finished third among Packers wideouts in that department Sunday. However, the 22 yards he recorded were his most as a professional, and he did not even return kickoffs Week 8, so he's simply not doing enough to help fantasy players.

  • Remains in bit role

    Rodgers was targeted three times and caught two passes for 14 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Commanders. He also returned two punts for 16 yards, fumbled twice and lost one of them.

    Analysis: The target, reception and yardage totals all set or tied career highs for Rodgers, who played around 30 percent of the snaps for a second straight week but again played only a small role in the offense. Even on a day when the Packers were down two wideouts and lost another mid-game, Rodgers finished fifth among Packers receivers with 16 offensive snaps, so he remains tough to trust from a fantasy perspective.

  • Records first 2022 reception

    Rodgers was caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Rodgers played only four snaps on offense over the Packers' first five games, but he took the field for 22 offensive snaps in Week 6, seeing a bump in usage after Randall Cobb (ankle) left the game. Rodgers did little, but he did record his first reception of the season. Three Packers wideouts head into Week 7 with injury concerns, so Rodgers could be deployed beyond his usual special teams role once again.

  • Limited to returns in opener

    Rodgers returned one kick for 14 yards and one punt for 12 yards in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Rodgers fielded all the returns the Packers had Week 1, but he was limited to special-teams work only and did not see a snap on offense, even with top wideout Allen Lazard (ankle) inactive. Rodgers should continue handling the return duties, but don't expect much else from him at this point.

  • Versatile usage again Thursday

    Rodgers caught all four of his targets for 39 yards, gained 17 yards on three carries and returned a kickoff for 12 yards in Thursday's preseason game against Kansas City.

    Analysis: The 2021 third-round pick showed his versatility once again, and Rodgers' ability to contribute on special teams could help him secure a roster spot even after the offseason additions of wideouts Christian Watson (knee) and Romeo Doubs in the draft, as well as the signing of free agent Sammy Watkins. Rodgers caught only four of eight targets as a rookie despite suiting up for 16 games, however, and he may not see enough action on offense to see a big increase in those numbers.

  • Inefficient in preseason victory

    Rodgers recorded two receptions on five targets for five yards in Friday's 20-10 preseason win over the Saints. He added two rushes for 15 yards and also served as the team's primary punt returner.

    Analysis: Rodgers had a busy game and appeared all over the stat sheet. He was inefficient as a receiver, though he seemingly had an 18-yard reception that was ultimately overturned upon review. The Packers also made a point to get Rodgers involved in the offense, as he received two carries while returning two punts for a total of nine yards. Rodgers isn't likely to open the season with a substantial offensive role, though he should make the roster based on his special-teams contributions.

  • Stays busy in preseason opener

    Rodgers brought in one of two targets for 22 yards, rushed once for four yards and returned two kickoffs for 69 yards in the Packers' 28-21 preseason loss to the 49ers on Friday night.

    Analysis: The second-year wideout made his presence felt in the preseason opener as he aims to secure a role in a Packers receiving corps that's in transition following the trade of Davante Adams. Rodgers' performance as a returner was the most productive aspect of his night, but his 22-yard grab was encouraging as well. The Clemson product will look to continue jockeying for depth-chart positioning in a home preseason matchup against the Saints next Friday night.

  • Conditioning improved for Year 2

    Coach Matt LaFleur said Saturday that Rodgers is "in much better shape" heading into his second NFL season, Peter Bukowski of The Leap reports.

    Analysis: Rodgers, a 2021 third-round pick, only filled a depth role as a rookie (eight targets in 16 appearances), but he reportedly looks leaner and more explosive in the early days of training camp. At the least, Rodgers is facing increased opportunity. With Davante Adams no longer in the mix, Rodgers is competing for touches in a wide receiver corps headlined by Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins and Randall Cobb along with rookies Christian Watson (knee) and Romeo Doubs. If Rodgers can continue to live up…read more

  • Fills bit role in rookie season

    Rodgers was targeted eight times and caught four passes for 45 yards over 16 appearances in the 2021 season. He also had one carry for 11 yards, returned 20 punts for 166 yards and took back 11 kicks for 199 yards.

    Analysis: Rodgers was selected by the Packers in the third round of last year's draft, and it was thought he would have a chance to contribute as a rookie. However, he was buried on the depth chart for most of the campaign and was limited mainly to return work. Rodgers could play a bigger role in Year 2, but his prospects will be uncertain until it is determined which receivers will be back in Green Bay in 2022 and which ones will head elsewhere.

  • Still not seeing many snaps

    Rodgers had one reception for seven yards and one carry for 11 yards in Thursday's 24-21 victory over the Cardinals. He also returned two punts for 12 yards.

    Analysis: With the Packers down their top three wideouts Thursday, Rodgers was on the field for a season-high 16 snaps, and that allowed him to see three targets in the passing game and a season-high two touches on offense. While the rookie third-round pick made a couple positive plays, he was only on the field for 22 percent of the snaps and finished fourth among Packers wideouts in that department.

  • Snags second reception

    Rodgers caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-14 victory over the Bears. He also returned two punts for 16 yards.

    Analysis: Rodgers has not had many opportunities to contribute in his rookie season, but he made a couple key plays Sunday, picking up good yardage on a punt return in the second quarter and also picking up a first down on a short pass in the third. Despite the positives, he figures to remain in a bit role for the Packers.

    Rodgers did not play a snap on offense in Monday's 35-17 victory over the Lions. He did return a punt for two yards.

    Analysis: Rodgers played a few snaps and caught a pass in the Packers' Week 1 loss, but he only handled the punt-return duties in Week 2. With at least four veteran receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, Rodgers could remain limited to special teams for the time being.

  • One reception in debut

    Rodgers was targeted once and caught one pass for 19 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: Rodgers played only 15 snaps in Sunday's contest, but he did manage to record his first reception as a professional. His snap count tied him with fellow reserve wideouts Randall Cobb and Malik Taylor but was far behind the Packers' top three wide receivers, and the bulk of those came late in the game. As such, don't consider the rookie more than a depth option for the time being.

  • Plays into fourth quarter

    Rodgers caught six of seven targets for 41 yards in Saturday's preseason loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: The stat line is respectable, but it's worth noting that Rodgers had five of his six catches with the third-string offense, including three on the final drive of the game. The rookie third-round pick doesn't appear likely to get many snaps on offense Week 1 at New Orleans, with Randall Cobb presumably taking most of the slot work.

  • Solid showing Saturday

    Rodgers caught four of five targets for 31 yards in Saturday's preseason loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: With the Packers resting most of their starters, Rodgers saw plenty of snaps with the first-team offense but didn't post particularly great numbers with third-string QB Kurt Benkert under center. The 2021 third-round pick should have a spot on the Week 1 roster, but Green Bay's depth at wide receiver could make it tough for him to get much attention from Aaron Rodgers.

  • Nondescript debut

    Rodgers was targeted four times and caught three passes for 15 yards in the Packers' preseason opener against the Texans. He also returned one punt for 14 yards.

    Analysis: Rodgers did not do a lot in his first appearance as a pro, but he did get a chance to show what he could do on both offense and special teams. With Randall Cobb back in the fold and three other receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, it seems unlikely Rodgers will play anything more than a situational role on offense early on. However, his spot on the roster is secure, and he is in line to be the Packers' primary punt returner.

  • Could contribute in two phases

    Rodgers could play a role both in the Packers offense and on special teams, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic.
