This Packers WR may have saved his job before time runs out

There wasn't a lot to like about the Green Bay Packers' performance in their Week 1 preseason game against New York, but Matt LaFleur's team got back on track with a solid showing versus Indianapolis.

Some players took advantage of the opportunity for a bounce-back game. After muffing a punt in the opener, fielding another questionable ball deep in his own territory, and dropping a pass, Mecole Hardman was one of the many players on the radar to do just that.

With plenty of absences in the wide receiver room early in the process, LaFleur needed the veteran to step up to justify his addition to the roster in the first place.
