The Good, Bad And Ugly From The Packers’ Sixth Training Camp Practice
Green Bay Packers third-year player Jordan Morgan is stepping into the left tackle role this season.
The Green Bay Packers held their fourth non-contact training camp practice on Sunday, with notable improvements in team morale and the return of injured players. Cornerback Kamal Hadden, who missed the offseason program and first three practices due to a significant leg and ankle injury, made a successful return. Rookie offensive lineman Jager Burton also rejoined the team following a hamstring injury.
Second-year edge rusher Collin Oliver showed promise in his first practice since a hamstring injury, while rookie kicker Trey Smack struggled, making only three out of five field goals. Cornerback Carrington Valentine left practice with an undisclosed injury, and key players Micah Parsons and Javon Hargrave remain sidelined. The session's low point involved Donovan Jennings accidentally snapping two balls over quarterback Tyrod Taylor's head, leading to his replacement.
Coach Matt LaFleur highlighted an improved team vibe and unity, with rookie Burton changing his name to Zach Bako-Bewele. The practice lasted 1 hour and 40 minutes, with full contact pads scheduled for the first time on Monday.
