Green Bay Packers fans saw the potential. The team apparently didn't. Now, rookie running back Amar Johnson may finally get the opportunity he needs.
Johnson only wanted Green Bay on draft day, and he got his wish by signing with the team as an undrafted free agent immediately after. The rookie played like he had a point to prove to the Packers by lighting up the preseason, with fans urging the team to find room for him on the 53-man roster.
Green Bay's crowded running back room led to Johnson's departure, but the Los Angeles Chargers may give him his opportunity following an injury to rookie star Omarion Hampton.
