The stat that shows this isn't the same Rodgers is his average depth of target.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Rodgers' lowest-in-NFL ADoT signals aging QB avoiding hits, limiting offensive ceiling.

Rodgers' 6.37 average depth of target last season was the lowest in the NFL among any quarterback with 250+ passes, and he tied for the quickest time in the pocket per throw among NFL quarterbacks.
