When Davante Adams went down, many looked to Jimmy Graham to help carry the load. In the first two games after Adams’ injury, Graham was almost non-existent. He didn’t have a touchdown and seemed to have as many drops as he did receptions.

On Sunday, Graham turned back the clock and turned in as fine of a performance as he has had in Green Bay. Graham tied for the game lead with four receptions for 65 yards and a touchdown.

He even showed he still has a little wiggle, catching a pass in the flat and juking a defender to get the first down on a third-quarter drive that ended with Graham’s third touchdown on the year.

Graham has flashed potential to be a game-changer in this offense. The problem has been that after having a good game, he has disappeared for stretches. Some of that may have to do with game plan and some with Graham.

But, if Rodgers is fully comfortable and rolling, there’s reason to believe we should start to see consistency with Graham’s production. He may not be the same player he was a few years ago, but he still has more than enough to be a contributor in Coach LaFleur’s offense.
