Report: Packers without top 5 WRs at OTAs

Along with disgruntled quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers were missing their top five wide receivers Tuesday at organized team activities, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Allen Lazard, Devin Funchess, and Equanimeous St. Brown were reportedly all absent. Team activities up until June minicamp are optional, though most other players were in attendance.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters he had no reason to believe the five wideouts coordinated their absences.

"I've had individual conversations with each guy, but never once has that come up," LaFleur said, according to Steve Megargee of The Associated Press.

Third-round draftee Amari Rodgers was the only present wideout who has a realistic chance at earning a meaningful role on the offense in 2021. Jordan Love, the quarterback Green Bay traded up to draft in the first round in 2020, led the unit in Aaron Rodgers' absence.

The reigning MVP shed light on his feud with Packers management Monday night after failing to join his teammates for the beginning of OTAs.

"It's just kind of about a philosophy and maybe forgetting that it is about the people that make the thing go," Rodgers said. "It's about character, it's about culture, it's about doing things the right way."
