There was a different vibe
and sound to practice number six at the Green Bay Packers training camp.
Both were provided by shoulder pads as the team put on the gear for the first time this summer. You could feel an uptick in the energy and there were long awaited football drills taking place, like the always interesting one on one pass rushing drill between offensive and defensive linemen.
Pro Bowl guard Elgton Jenkins, now learning the left tackle spot in David Bakhtiari’s absence got in three straight reps with Preston Smith. Each more spririted than the next. Rookie center Josh Myers got an education from Kenny Clark who flattened him to the ground just after he snapped the ball and Billy Turner got reacquainted with Rashan Gary by giving him a fist jam under the chin the that eventually dislodged Gary’s hat right off. Ah, football.

A lot of Wisconsin wildlife shuts down in the winter, I on the other hand, annually hibernate over the first three weeks of July. A couple of novels, a few day trips and plenty of tee times are in the books, vacation’s over and here comes the 2021 Green Bay Packers season.
Head Coach Matt LaFleur’s third training camp welcomes rookies and first year players on Friday, the vets report early next week and the first camp practice hits Ray Nitschke Field on Wednesday, July 28.
Needless to say, this is going to be one wild summer. The unresolved Aaron Rodgers dilemma will dominate the Titletown District but as nearly every NFL coach says about this time of year, “the train is leaving the station.” If the reigning MVP is aboard, fine. If not, well the train must roll on.
