GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Myles White's locker is in the auxiliary area of the Green Bay Packers' locker room, but you won't find him there often.

Like after Saturday's Family Night practice, there was White in the main locker room, hanging out where he thinks he belongs.

Based on his play so far during training camp, he might be right.

White accounted for two of the 10 completions during the team (11-on-11) portion of Saturday's practice and so far this summer has consistently reminded general manager Ted Thompson that he plans to be a tough cut come Sept. 5.

Barring injuries to the Packers' top-four receivers -- Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, Davante Adams and rookie Ty Montgomery -- White is battling eight others for one, maybe two spots. But who among that group has performed better than White so far?

Not Jeff Janis, who had a bad drop during Saturday’s practice and may still have a ways to go before he gains quarterback Aaron Rodgers' trust.

Not Jared Abbrederis, who hasn't practiced since he sustained a concussion on the first day of camp.

And not any of the undrafted rookies.

"To be honest, I'm really not thinking about it like that," White said. "I just want to make the most of my opportunities when I have them and whatever happens, happens. I can think myself to death if I try to worry about what Ted's going to do or how they're going to make it happen. I just know what I can do on my end of things is perform and execute when I can."

To that end, White went to work on his body. He played in seven games as a spindly rookie in 2013 after an early season call up from the practice. He caught nine passes for 66 yards in limited action after Cobb’s leg injury. After a late-season knee injury ended his rookie year, he got cut last summer at the end of training camp and was re-signed to the practice squad, hence his home in the auxiliary changing area.

He realized last season that needed to get stronger in part to show he can improve on his 7.3-yards per catch average from 2013 and in part to show he can be more than just a slot receiver. The 6-foot White said he's up to 195 pounds, or about 10 pounds heavier than his rookie playing weight and three or four pounds heavier than last year.

The Packers like their receivers to be able to play on the perimeter as well as in the slot.

"I was mainly playing inside, and I'd like to show that I can play outside as well," White said. "I think I can do both. I feel like I've gained enough weight to be able to do both. I'm just excited about the opportunity to play these four [preseason] games and go about business."

That's the next step for White, who already has some impressive catches in practice. During a two-minute drill last Monday, White caught a 17-yard back-shoulder fade from Scott Tolzien and then won the drill with a 35-yard touchdown catch down the left sideline.

Although assistant coach Alex Van Pelt said, "I'm pretty sure I haven't been around a receiver group as talented with everybody in the room." White has something that most of them do not: two years of experience in the Packers' system. Besides Nelson and Cobb, White has been here the longest, even if he didn't like the way last year went.

"Well, it was tough because I went from being active back to practice squad," White said. "So I just tried to make the most of a bad situation in my eyes, and just learn from everybody."
