General:
- Pads today. Packers in white again.
- It's also the last practice open to the public, which means it might be the last training camp thread for the season depending on how much access they give the beat reporters. It's been fun everyone.

Offense:
- Dillon is back practicing today.

- Carl Lawson had a TFL on the first play.
- Aaron drops back and throws an incompletion. JFM has pressure beats Turner.
- Kylin Hill runs right for a first down before Mosley hits him.

- Ben Braden working RT with twos. Dennis Kelly was banged up yesterday
- Toss left to AJ Dillion but the Jets d line blows that up for no gain.
- Valdes Scantling gets over the top of Jets secondary and Rodgers finds him for a 50 yard completion on the corner router. Marcus Maye was the nearest defender. Another big play during a big camp for MVS. Good block by Dillon on the play.
- And now goes to Lazard underneath, a lot of weapons for defenses to consider.
- Carl Lawson pressure forces Rodgers off his spot & an errant throw.
- Benkert taking both the two and three reps.
- MVS on a pitch/end-around left for about 10.
- Jon Runyan getting some work at center with the backups.
- Team redzone from the 8 yard line. First play was to Tonyan who almost scored. Cj Mosley forced a fumble.
- Rodgers just threw a TD to Adams from the five where he threw the ball on an out when Adams was still running forward. Adams turned, ball right there, TD. I dunno how you defend that.
- Pressure forces Rodgers to throw it away.
- Rodgers quick out left to Adams. TD. vs Javelin Guidry.
- Jake Hanson back to taking second-team center reps today. But Ben Braden taking second-team reps at right tackle. The more you can do.
- Rodgers to MVS over the middle but it falls incomplete Jarrad Davis made it a tough throw.
- Carl Lawson is hurt. Surrounded by trainers & players. It’s a left leg injury for Carl Lawson. He’s being carted off the field. Practice got very quiet. That’s so disappointing man. Carl Lawson was eating all camp...Update: Carl Lawson, one of their big free agent signings, suffered a lower leg at practice today and he’s having an MRI on his Achilles,. If it is torn, Lawson would be out for the season.
- Aaron Rodgers and Robert Tonyan have been on some groove together in camp. Rodgers just threads a pass past tight coverage from Jets LB Jarrad Davis for touchdown in red-zone drill. They look poised for a big season.
- Rodgers throws a laser to Allen Lazard.
- Dillon stopped just short.
- A fight breaks out between the Jets defense and Packers offense. Randall Cobb and Brandin Echols get into a tussle and we have differences. Adams next in. Rodgers tried to play peacemaker but the scuffle goes on for a good 30 seconds.
- Benkert throws a nice TD, rolling right to Amari Rodgers. Contested catch.
- Sheldon Rankins left early with an apparent injury, too.
- Devin Funchess and Dennis Kelly just came out to the field, not practicing but that’s usually a good sign for guys to be out here the next day.
- Aaron Rodgers nearly sacked. Quinnen Williams just checked in.
- Rodgers - Adams deep down right sideline. Just a perfectly-placed pass. Hall had nice coverage. Didn’t matter. Nothing you can do there. Great late hands by Adams to bring in the 22 yard pass over Bryce Hall.
- Ronnie Blair is in for the injured Carl Lawson.
- Packers moving right down field on Jets defense in this drive-the-field drill. Aaron Rodgers making it look easy.
- Robert Freakin Tonyan, man Just catches everything Contested catch through traffic and hauls in down the seam from Rodgers for 30, against Marcus Maye. I didn’t know there was a window there. Rodgers found one, or made one.
- Benkert making plays with his feet, rolls right and finds Deguara on a deep connection, few yards short of end zone. Busted coverage. Beat Hamilcar.
- Packers turn in the 2 minute. Rodgers doesn’t see anybody rolls right and throw it away.
- Rodgers finds Cobb. More pushing after the play—this time Jets DL and Packers OL. Foley Fatukasi talking trash to the entire Packers offense.
- Rodgers over the middle to Josiah Deguara for a first.
- MVS dropped a perfect Rodgers pass for a would-be, 45-yard score. Right through his hands. He beat Hall.
- Next play an INT on a tough catch that went off Lazard’s hands and picked by Sharrod Neasman. DL having fun talking after that. Rodgers pushed Nathan Shepherd, who threw himself down to the ground in LBJ-like flopping fashion. That was funny.
- DB Zane Lewis is hurt. He’s being carted off.
- Lowry is back. Lancaster isn't practing. No sign of Z.
- Keke, Slaton and Heflin get the start on the DL. Preston and Gary at edge. Barnes, Campbell, Stokes, Jaire, Amos, Savage.
- False start Jets on play two. First play went for a short gain on a run right.
- Jaire and Amos got turned around on a double (maybe triple) move on a long developing play. It looked like Amos should have had the deep middle. Ball insanely underthrown though.
- Jaire INT!!!! Read Wilson perfectly. Awesome play!!! Pass rush had good pressure. Alexander undercuts a route against Jets TE Chris Herndon over the middle.
- Ento next up at CB. He very much seems to be in the lead for that last cb spot.
- Offsides on Willington Previlon off a Wilson hard count.
- Redmond getting team reps today. He’s in with Black with the #2 safeties. Yiadom in at CB.
- Big run for the Jets between Avery & Garvin.
- Broken play for the Jets who had a lineman about 20 yards downfield on a pass play. SJC calls him out to the refs.
- Tipa exits the field late. Would have been too many men in the field. The play prior he did a nice job stopping a run.
- Outside run - Jaire and Savage all over it.
- Campbell blows up a run in the backfield. His tape is all over the place (good and bad) for his career but there’s no denying he’s having a nice camp.
- Nice coverage deep on a shot play. Checkdown that Burks shuts down pretty quick.
- Preston Smith with another pressure. Nice 2 days for him.
- Previlon, Heflin and Kemp in on the DL and the Jets run right up the middle. way too much space and a big gain.
- Another big run follows. Same group up front. Didn’t hold up well at all there.
- Innis Gaines with a great PBU on pass downfield from James Morgan to D.J. Montgomery. Makes one every day.
- Kevin King about to get some team reps. Stokes started in team.
- Pressure by Preston Smith on Wilson in red zone. He’s had a really nice couple days.
- Looks like Aaron Rodgers taught Zach Wilson about the hard count. Preston jumps offsides next play. Play blown dead.
- Previlon with a pressure after the pass defense held up really well on the back end.
- Preston comes untouched off the edge. Wilson gets rid of it but Campbell is right there and the ball falls incomplete.
- Delontae Scott comes around the corner for a nice run stop.
- Mike White touchdown pass in red zone. Looked like SJC was a tad late getting over.
- Previlon having a nice day. Nice run stop at the Los.
- Wilson with a very impressive throw for a td to Corey Davis. Hollman in coverage. Wasn’t terrible but not good enough.
- Wilson then throws into double coverage for Tyler Kroft in the end zone. Darnell Savage tipped away the pass that probably would have been picked by Amos. Both safeties playing well.
- Kemp and Burks in on a run stop at the Los.
- Tipa beat the RT clean for a pressure on Morgan. Would have been a sack for sure.
- Jets WR Denzel Mims limped off the field and is now headed back inside on a cart. Didn’t seem serious though.
- Vernon Scott is back to the sidelines in shorts too. Good sign.
- Wilson first throw was to Jeff Smith. A 15 yards Dig. Stokes in coverage.
- Screen pass to Crowder for a 8 yard pick up.
- Jeff Smith gets Stokes again, only a quick 4-5 yard comeback though. No harm.
- Campbell in on another run stop. Nice day for him. If they were hitting he may have crushed Coleman.
- Wilson on third down drops back but gets sacked. Jonathan Garvin and Preston Smith with the sacks. That was a combo of holding the ball and the OTs getting beat. Preston Smith just bull rushed George Fant and pushed him all the way back into Zach Wilson. Literally. Wilson took a bit of a tumble. Smith continues his strong joint practices.
- Henry Black still the dime safety with the ones.
- Chauncey Rivers with a sack after a few nice run stops by the 2nd/3rd team defense.
- Then Rivers bursts through again for a TFL on Perine. Impressive sequence there.
- Dominique Martin beat on about a 12-15 yard comeback.
- SJC beat on about a 8 yard out to Berrios.
- Mike White dumps one off to Michael Carter in the flat and Chris Herndon takes out both Packers DBs Ka’dar Hollman and Christian Uphoff with a block to spring a TD.
- 2 min drill Jets up Wilson First throw to crowder for an 8 yard gain.
- Chauncey Rivers has obviously made an impression. With Z out and Gary on a snap count, Rivers getting snaps with the 1s in 2 minute drills.
- Wilson doesn’t see anybody tries to step up but is sacked by Keke.
- Third down he throws over the middle to Tyler Kroft but it’s almost picked. (by Amos?)
- Stokes with a nice breakup vs Keelan Cole on a curl on fourth and 9.
- Zach Wilson-led 2-minute drill goes nowhere against the first-team defense. Four-and-out.
- Jets 1s vs Packers 2s 2 minute drill.
- Wilson to Jeff Smith and Ty Johnson to start his second 2 min drill. It’s third down now.
- He throws it to Chris Herndon but it falls incomplete miscommunication on that one. Herndon stopped running. Unfortunate, could have been a big gain. 4th down.
- Wilson over the middle to Corey Davis to keep the drive alive.
- Kabion Ento with a pass defensed on sideline comeback to Cole.
- Wilson had a wide-open Corey Davis down the right sideline. Overthrown. Davis gave it an effort with a full-extension dive. Pass still too far. Better throw and it’s a walk-in TD. Beat Yiadom.
- And then Wilson comes back and buys time cuts back and throws an absolute dime of a touchdown to Braxton Berrios who beat SJC. DL Previlon had a clean look at Wilson but pulled off. Would have been a sack.
- They go for 2 but appeared to come up short on a run up the middle.
- Nice special teams rep from Yiadom as the gunner. Got past both blockers and was on the return man. He has almost 500 career ST snaps.
- Molson makes all six FGs and that’s it for joint practices and open-to-fans practices for the summer.

Press Conference Notes:
Matt LaFleur Presser
- LaFleur on Royce Newman: "I thought Royce did a really nice job yesterday. He'll get the opportunity to start on Saturday. You can see the talent. There's just a lot to learn, for any rookie."
- Matt LaFleur isn't ruling out Jordan Love officially for Saturday's game yet, but he adds: "I would say it's probably unlikely." Looks like Kurt Benkert will start vs. Jets ... and play a lot.
- Matt LaFleur says he's content to let Kevin King and rookie Eric Stokes compete for starting job through camp. LaFleur hasn't soured on King: "When he challenges guys at the line of scrimmage, I think he's as good as anybody."
