Packers return to practice field Sunday

The public can see the Green Bay Packers practice for the first time on Sunday following their preseason tilt with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 

The Packers showed that they have plenty to work on still after its 28-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday. Trey Smack drilled three field goals and one other that was negated by a penalty to give fans hope after a rough start to his camp. Of his four kicks that went through the uprights, two of them were from 58 yards out. Jordan Love's night ended after the first drive, going 3-5 for 18 yards as he led the Packers to an opening drive field goal. Backup Kyle McCord opened eyes in relief of Love and Tyrod Taylor, throwing for 102 yards on 12 completions. Isaiah Neyor led the Packers in receiving with four grabs for 34 yards while Damien Martinez led the team in rushing with 20 yards on eight carries. 

 

Sunday's practice is one of the last four opportunities fans can see the Packers' progress themselves before the regular season begins. Tuesday's practice before the Packers play in Denver against Broncos in addition to next Monday and Wednesday's sessions ahead of the home preseason finale against the Arizona Cardinals. Next Wednesday's practice will be a joint practice with the Cardinals.

 

All four practices begin at 10:30 a.m.
