What he needs to be similar to is Finley.
When he went to the Packers as a tryout player in their youngster camp in 2012, he took a prompt getting a kick out of the chance to Finley's amusement. Bostick, a previous little school collector at minimal known Newberry in South Carolina, used his first season on the practice squad figuring out how to play tight terminate. That offseason, he fall in Finley for workouts and made the Packers' lists leaving camp a year ago. He played sparingly, yet arrived at the midpoint of more than 17 yards for every get on seven gatherings, before his season finished on account of a softened foot up December. Bostick did a reversal to Minneapolis to get together with Finley this past July, using around a month working out with him before preparing camp.
Despite the fact that he is recorded at 250 pounds, Bostick said he built up to 260 for this season to a limited extent to enhance his in-line blocking. Bostick still has room to develop as a blocker. Against the Titans, he was required a holding punishment that wiped out a 19-yard run by Dujuan Harris.
The precise next snap was the Finley imitation play.
"On the off chance that I look like Jermichael out there," Bostick said. "I figure that is a decent thing."
