GREEN BAY – It’s a tired, worn-out saying that up-and-coming players can learn from established stars.
It’s absolutely true, however, in the case of quarterback Scott Tolzien, who earlier this week in practice showed he’s absorbing all he can from Aaron Rodgers.
Perhaps the league’s best at drawing the defense offside and then taking advantage of the free play, Rodgers on Monday watched his protégé win the two-minute drill in that very fashion.
Taking a no-risk shot downfield after a defensive lineman jumped early, Tolzien hit receiver Myles White for a 35-yard touchdown on fourth down.
