Green Bay Packers WR Randall Cobb did recently reveal Aaron Rodgers to be the reason behind his never-ending confidence. The wideout was really in awe of his impact with the franchise after it made Rodgers push for his comeback. The Packers WR did get drafted to the team following their Super Bowl-winning campaign in 2010. He was part of the Green Bay roster from 2011 to the 2018 season who fell short every year to go deep in the postseason.

Cobb always did deem himself to be the reason that they never went further. Following Cobb signing with the Cowboys in 2019, the Packers did reach the NFC Championship game, losing to the 49ers. Small self-doubt about his abilities did envelope the player at that moment of time.

Adams has been a really key figure for the Packers and their emergence as a Super Bowl contender. So Rodgers really needs Cobb to give his opponent defenses another big problem. Cobb while talking about Rodgers’ faith in him states, “It gives you all the confidence in the world. One of the best players in the history of the game is asking for you, saying he needs you.
