Green Bay Packers offensive line coach Adam Stenavich can see the potential in rookie guard Royce Newman, but he’s also pushing the fourth-round pick to improve and overcome the inconsistencies that have plagued the start of his NFL career.
Newman has started all 10 games at right guard for the Packers, but he’s allowed five sacks and been penalized three times.
“I would say he’s inconsistent,” Stenavich said Wednesday. “There are improvements, definitely, and he’s done a lot of good things, but there’s definitely been some inconsistencies that we’re going to have to keep working through.
