'Just his presence in the locker room and the things he brings to the game, the expertise, all the tales he had to tell, and all that,' Jenkins said, he's going to be missing in our locker room.' The untested Jordan Love, who has been waiting in Rodgers' shadow, will get his shot to start for the first three years, replacing Rodgers as Green Bay's next signal-caller for the forthcoming season.

So we know he's a good player and is just waiting to play on Sunday or whenever we play.'

The NFL is back, and with it, the 2022 fantasy football season. For all of the rumors surrounding the demise of the running back, many of whom now post snaps in teams' continuing attempts to minimize injuries, many top fantasy players can still be found at the position. Even fantasy football novices will find value in Jonathan Taylor, who had 92 touches in the red zone in 2021, or Carolina Panthers quarterback Christian McCaffrey, who ranks among the top players in the game when healthy. Tom Brady has returned from a short absence, but that doesn't mean fantasy enthusiasts will be able to expect the same show. Nevertheless, Aaron Rogers is somehow undervalued despite winning multiple MVPs and Deebo Samuel's return to his first fantasy season in 2021.
