General:

  • Full pads
  • Jarveon Howard released & Henry Pearson re-signed.
  • Welcome to the 17th practice
  • Former Packers O-line coach James Campen is at camp today dressed in team garb. Campen is serving as a consultant in the personnel department. Should help them a lot identifying O-line prospects as well as evaluating their own. If anyone knows what a Packers offensive lineman looks like, it's James Campen. He helped develop a lot of great players over 15 years.
Next Event: Open Joint Practice with Ravens, Aug. 22nd 10:30 A.M. CT

Injured:

  • AJ Dillon (stinger)
  • Andre Dillard (shoulder)
  • Keshawn Banks DL (groin)
  • MarShawn Lloyd RB (groin)
  • Preston Smith (illness)
  • Spencer Waege (concussion)
  • Tyler Davis (shoulder)
Not Practicing / Limited:

  • Edgerrin Cooper LB (hip, limited)
Offense:

  • Interesting - Jacob Monk rotating in at RG with the starters in walkthroughs. Could be misremembering but don’t recall seeing that.
  • Starters in team:
    • Love
    • Jacobs
    • Reed - Watson - Wicks
    • Kraft
    • Walker - EJ - Myers - Rhyan - Tom
  • Offense starts with two really nice runs by Josh Jacobs
  • Completed a deep crosser to Romeo Doubs from Love. Love had all day. Beautiful throw from 10 to 87. Great start for the offense. Play draws a big reaction from crowd..
  • With all the injuries at RB - Nate McCrary just got a carry with the ones. Made the most of it. Nice little run up the middle. Good burst.
  • Love hits Doubs in stride down the sideline for a big pickup. In a game McKinney would have had a free hit on him but he lets up on this one.
  • Rhyan starts at RG, now Monk getting some reps.
  • Love complete to Reed for a nice pickup
  • Really nice Jacobs run
  • A crosser to Kraft for a big gain and the offense is on fire.
  • Love completed all 4 passes for 77 yards.
  • Love to Doubs. Behind him, Doubs got his hands on it but couldn’t haul it in. Should have been an easy completion. First mistake from the offense.
  • Love to Watson complete over the middle. Another one that in the game Watson would have taken a hit but this time Quay kept him safe.
  • Love to Kraft on a screen for a BIG gain. Probably the best executed screen I’ve seen from GB in a while.
  • Love to Musgrave complete for a short gain.
  • Love to Reed on a wide receiver screen that also works. Offense making everything look good at the moment.
  • Good pressure by the defense but Love somehow finds Kraft out wide on a checkdown for a handful of yards.
Defense:

  • We will see what happens in team drills but in walkthroughs Rhyan began at RG with Monk then rotating in.
  • Starters in team:
    • Gary - Slaton - Clark - Enagbare
    • Quay - McDuffie
    • Stokes - Nixon - Jaire
    • McKinney - Bullard
Special Teams:

  • Hale, Joseph, Carlson all here at practice so no changes at kicker.
  • Carlson (41L, 45R) and Hale (43R, 45R) go 2 for 2
  • Joseph missed from 43R and then made 41L
  • Joseph misses from 47L and 49L.
  • Carlson makes extra point and misses 47L off right upright.
  • Hale makes extra point but missed 49R wide left.
  • Today:
    • Joseph 1/4
    • Hale 3/4
    • Carlson 3/4
  • Camp totals:
    • Anders Carlson: 53/66 - 80.3%
    • Greg Joseph: 53/68 - 77.9%
    • Alex Hale: 14/20 - 70.0%
  • Kicking competition continues to stink. Sure looked like Greg Joseph was going to start pulling away, but he's had a terrible last week or so.
  • Names to know for Packers fans:
    • Cade York
    • Austin Seibert
    • Brayden Narveson
    • Joey Slye

Interviews:

  • Matt LaFleur: Pressor
    • Says Edgerrin Cooper will participate in individual work today.
    • Morgan will do individual today and then they'll see if he can do team on Thursday.
    • Says TBD on who'll play against Baltimore.
    • MarShawn Lloyd still out.
    • "Certainly, they're young players that haven't played. You'd love to see them get in there and get some action in."
    • Said that after watching tape that his guys were playing hard. They just made a bunch of mental mistakes. He said he saw lots of hats around the football on defense and that it was clear the effort was good.
    • On Ty'Ron Hopper: "It was good. There were some moments where he showed some physicality. There were some moments that he showed he hadn't played football in a while. There were a lot of good plays and ones we have to learn from and get better."
    • “You can’t see them kick enough” - LaFleur on the kicking competition.
    • “Devonte Wyatt has really excelled in this scheme”
