DK Standing around, when the protection breaks down?

Last night was particularly focused on DK in pass plays. Why? Well because somehow I needed DK to success to win my fantasy playoff game. How did I let it come down to DK to win? That is a whole other thread, but back to the topic. I was focused on DK when A-Rod started moving outside of the pocket, and maybe I am off here, but it seems that when the protection breaks down, and Rodgers has to scramble, Mr. DK is standing still on the field. Like, DK moves to his spot in the zone and then slows to a stop and doesn't scramble to an open spot.

Has anyone else noticed this or am I off my 'old man' rocker?
 
Only watched DK on a scramble once last night

He kept active on the play, opened up for Rodgers and made that particular play happen with a catch

George was crucified for his lack of effort... but at least he caught more than he dropped.

DK had an amazing "strong TD" last night but methinks he's still not a dominant WR1.

I'll have to pay attention to his blocking moving forward...

He will improve as the other receivers step up. When a team has too many weapons to defend against, guys like DK shine.

He will have to improve tremendously of that always 'being active' either scrambling or blocking as he is in a multi-year deal and more than likely we will have a younger scrambling QB in the years to come.
