Why couldn\u2019t Sarratt try that with his own quarterback, Fernando Mendoza?<\/p>\n<p class=\"feedBody\" q:key=\"Il_0\" q:id=\"39\">Adams does \u201ca great job of getting the release off the ball, and then around 12, 14 yards, Aaron Rodgers just throwing a laser and &#8230; it drops in the bucket,\u201d Sarratt said recently. \u201cI tend to win off the line more times than not, so I felt like I had a good chance of [trying] it.\u201d (Sarratt\u2019s nickname is \u201cWaffle House,\u201d he once said, \u201cbecause I\u2019m open 24\/7.\u201d)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"feedBody\" q:key=\"Il_0\" q:id=\"3c\">One day, Sarratt took the idea to Mendoza. \u201cSame day after practice, we got a couple reps in, just trying to work it, be similar with how [Rodgers and Adams] were,\u201d Sarratt recalled. \u201cThen just communication after that. I try not to be picky. I just try to tell him let me get my hands on it, and he does a great job putting it on the money.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"feedBody\" q:key=\"Il_0\" q:id=\"3f\">This season, Sarratt has caught 62 passes for 802 yards and 15 touchdowns \u2014 the most receiving scores in the country. He has also caught a number of clutch back-shoulder fades from Mendoza. Look for that play when the game is on the line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At one point this season, Indiana receiver Elijah Sarratt was watching old tape of NFL legend Aaron Rodgers&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":424299,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-424298","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/424298","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=424298"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/424298\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/424299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=424298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=424298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=424298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
