Packers showing patience as former CFL receiver Reggie Begelton struggles to adjust

GREEN BAY - Even after Reggie Begelton caught 102 passes in the Canadian Football League last year, the Green Bay Packers knew it was going to take him some time to get used to the NFL.

Nine practices into training camp, Begelton is still adjusting.

He hasn’t made any of the eye-opening plays that led him to average 14.2 yards per catch and score 10 touchdowns for the Calgary Stampeders.

Then again, he’s playing in a completely different offense and under different rules, most notably the freedom in the CFL to send multiple players running toward the line of scrimmage before the snap.
