Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson received a very generous contract extension last week and now his teammate Randall Cobb is weighing in on his status.
Jordy Nelson Signs Extension With Packers
Cobb spoke about his contract status on Sunday and said that his resume isn't as good as it could be and he doesn't deserve the big money just yet.
"I don't believe I've done enough," Cobb said Sunday, "and I think that's on me.”
"I got injured in a way that there was nothing I could do about it," Cobb said. "I think my job is just to come out here every day, do what I'm supposed to, continue to work hard, and hopefully my time will come."
Cobb missed 10 games for the Packers in 2013 due to a fractured leg, but was on pace for a 90= catch and 1,200 yard season before the injury. Cobb is seen as the Packers No. 1 wide receiver and has taken on the mantle that Greg Jennings left when he signed with Minnesota.
Cobb said that his heart is in Green Bay and he can’t imagine himself playing anywhere else after 2014.
My heart's in Green Bay; I love Green Bay," Cobb said. "The three years I've been here have been unbelievable. But I understand the business side of it. I've been here to see things happen in my room alone with Donald [Driver] and Greg [Jennings] and James [Jones]. So I know the business, I understand that. So I'm trying to focus on day-to-day and handling what I can and letting the business side of it, letting my agent handle that and let it go that way."
Cobb is set to become a free agent in 2015 after his rookie deal expires.
