The Facts: Bennett doesn't lack a sense of humor or perspective on how fortunate he is to catch passes from quality QBs. After winning a Super Bowl championship with the Patriots Tom Brady last season, Bennett joined Packers star QB Aaron Rodgers via a three-year, $21 million contract he signed in March. "That's like leaving J. Lo and going to Halle Berry," Bennett said.
Diehards Line:
Bennett is already working to get on the same page with Rodgers. "We talk often. I'm excited about playing with him," Bennett said. "We've known each other for a while. I'm excited about working with him and learning his quarterback language and showing him what type of player I am. I think I'm a lot better player than they think I am. ..." Bennett caught 55 passes for 701 yards and seven touchdowns last season for the Patriots. The 30-year-old has caught 403 career passes for 4,287 yards and 30 touchdowns in nine NFL seasons spent with the Cowboys, Bears, Giants and Patriots. "I'm always excited anytime I get a chance to be a better player and work with different people," Bennett said. "I'm a competitor. I look forward to going out there and competing for the ultimate goal."
