Aaron Rodgers-led Green Bay Packers have been more or less consistent over the course of the 2020 NFL season. They are currently on a 7-2 record heading into Week 11.
They sit at the top of the NFC North Division table, above Nick Foles-led Chicago Bears and rival Minnesota Vikings. There have been some outstanding individual displays by Packers players such as Aaron Jones, Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Another name on that list is defensive star, Jaire Alexander.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers singled out cornerback Jaire Alexander for special praise after the latter’s impressive displays over the course of the season.
“I enjoy our conversations talking about the books he’s reading or his own mental process. His practice of mindfulness and being into meditation, he just has a really good outlook on life. His head is really in the right place at all times, allows him to really stay in the flow state and be on point every time he takes the field.”
“We were talking today, me and (tight end) Marcedes (Lewis), the difference between players who maybe are confident and those who have that fear of failure is the ability to quiet your mind, to slow things down to be more reactive and less thinking. That’s all traits Jaire has,” Rodgers told The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman.

The Packers registered two back-to-back wins against the San Francisco 49ers and Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Matt LaFleur will be looking to extend their winning streak to three games this weekend.
Davante Adams and Co. will go on the road against Philip Rivers-led Indianapolis Colts in Week 11. The home team will be brimming with confidence after last Sunday’s 17-34 win against the Tennessee Titans.
