MISCELLANEOUS:

The (closed) practice was not in pads but the tempo and competitiveness were at a high level.  Huber

And that’s it for today after 87 minutes.  Demovsky

Andre Miller, who has been in between WR and TE in his career, and started with the Packers as a WR, has made the move to TE today. We’ll see if it’s a permanent move but GB was very light on TEs with the Davis injury.  2) Starting OL in walkthroughs Walker - EJ - Myers - Runyan - Tom Owens still with Savage at safety.  3) I talked on my video today about how on the second int from Clifford that Tucker needed to do a better job of coming back to the ball and boxing out better against the defender. Matt basically just echoed that exact thought, stating Kraft needed to do a better job of coming back.  4) Matt LaFleur praised his receivers blocking in the game including calling out this block from Wicks.  Herman  [Click here to read Andy' twitter feed including some video, including the block Wicks threw.  TGR]

Deguara is on the field and running plays, per Bretl.

Second OL: Kadeem Telfort, Royce Newman, James Empey, Sean Rhyan, Yosh Nijman.  Wood

Ooops. Totally forgot! Tucker Kraft Jayden Reed Jordan Love Luke Musgrave (as best players in practice today).  Herman

With David Bakhtiari not practicing, the Packers reconfigured their offensive line on starter’s 2-minute drill: Rasheed Walker, Zach Tom, Josh Myers, Jon Runyan, Yosh Nijman. Tom took Elgton Jenkins’ reps, allowing Nijman to get RT reps. Third position Tom has played in camp.  Wood

LaFleur says he liked the play style of the receivers at Friday, notably by Heath's demolition of the safety.  Huber

INJURIES:

Players not practicing: Bakhtiari Caleb Jones Tenuta Tariq Carpenter Nichols Stokes Gaines Davis There are likely more, thus us what I’ve seen so far. Jake Hanson is back.  2)  I assumed Yosh was out but he is practicing. This seems like an upgrade for Walker. He was my 3rd highest graded offensive player on Friday.  3)  Goodson out Gary did lineup with the team in walkthroughs.  4)  Jaire is out here and had his helmet initially but looks like he’s working off to the side. May not be an official return to practice yet.  It was reported Friday that it’s a groin injury for Jaire. PR confirmed he’s out with the groin again today but just precautionary.  Herman  

RB Tyler Goodson is at practice, but he’s watching from the sideline with his right shoulder in a sling.  2)  Tariq Carpenter is not practicing because of a back injury. Wood

Tenuta is going to be the longest injury from the injuries on Friday per MLF (of those expected to return - Tyler Davis is out for the season).  Herman

Coach Matt LaFleur said the only injury that might last a while from the Bengals game was to LT Luke Tenuta. He didn't think the others were overly serious.  2)  LaFleur said that the personnel department will keep an eye on tight ends available after losing Tyler Davis for the season with a knee injury.  3)  LaFleur said that he doubted whether OLB Rashan Gary would be cleared for team reps this week. Said as soon as the trainers give him the go-ahead, he'll be out there but they are taking their time as expected.  Silverstein

Matt LaFleur implies that Luke Tenuta’s ankle injury is long term. Injuries from Friday to Tyler Goodson, Corey Ballentine and Caleb Jones don’t seem as serious.  Schneidman

QUARTERBACKS/WIDE RECEIVERS:

Opening offense: Love Watson - Toure Jones Musgrave - Deguara Walker - Elgton - Myers - JRJ - Tom.  Herman  

Love riffles a ball to Musgrave in team up the middle. Valentine close by. Nice throw by 10. Jones had a really nice run right side the play before and Dillon for a few up the middle after that.  2) Love to Musgrave for a big gain down field. Get your stock now. Clifford to Dubose off a bootleg on the next play.  3) Clifford and Empey botch an exchange. Crazy how many of those there have been.  4) Clifford hits Kraft for a td in red zone drills. Love hits Doubs on an out. Just short of end zone. Clifford comes back to Kraft next play but overthrown. Good coverage on the play. McGough to Dubose for a td. Nice start for Dubose today. Love to Deguara - Savage with fantastic coverage and bats it away. McGough throws a beautiful jump ball for a Allen who at 6’8” easily goes and gets it but Allen couldn’t survive the ground. Incomplete. Douglas continues his strong camp. Breaks up a pass to Musgrave from Love in the end zone. Jayden Reed td from Love. McCrary td from Clifford with an air guitar from Clifford after. Clifford and Love buy time on opposite ends of the field. Clifford hits Melton back of the end zone for a td. Love hits Dillon front of the end zone for a td. McGough designed rollout - throw away. Love throws an absolute bullet to Dillon for a Td. Good red zone period for the offenses!  Herman

5) 2 minute drill. 1:45 down 28-21. Own 30. 2 timeouts. Love at qb. Complete short to Jones. No gain. Out of bounds. Complete to Toure for 6 yards. Out of bounds. Complete to the right. Didn’t see to who. First down. Another big completion to Musgrave. First down out of bounds. Love and Deguara not on the same page on a corner route. Deguara cut it off shorter. Incomplete. Savage was on it. Jordan draws another false start with the hard count. Free play. Incomplete to Watson on a tough shot play. Overthrown a bit to the right but would have been contested anyway. Love misses a checkdown to Dillon. 3rd and 5 upcoming. On opposing 38. 52 seconds left. Still have both timeouts. Love to Reed on a slant. First down. Clock ticks. Love rolls left. Throw away. Nobody open. Ball on 31. 2nd and 10. 30 seconds left. Still 2 timeouts. Douglas talking serious smack. Love finds Wicks on a crosser. 9 yards. Timeout. 24 seconds left. Ball on 22. 3rd & 1. Love to Watson on a quick out. First down out of bounds. 20 seconds left. Ball n 15. First n 10. Love to Jones for a few. Next play love throws an absolute dime to Reed for a sliding touchdown. Beautiful play. Nixon in coverage. Was a free play too 2 point conversion - love to Doubs on a fade but Valentine in coverage. Defense holds. Really fun drive. 6) Same situation for the 2’s. Starting on own 25 though. First play Clifford’s throw almost picked by a diving McDuffie incomplete. Clifford to Taylor for a few. Clifford to Kraft on one of the best plays of camp up the seam between 3 defenders. Perfectly placed. Awesome play by Kraft but they called it a sack or something. Everyone a bit confused on what happened. Brenton Cox sack, defense wins.  Herman

Down 28-21 with 1:45 left on own 30, starting offense scores TD on starting defense in two minute on dime down seam from Love to Reed for 13-yard score against Nixon on free play (Cox jumped off). Fade to Doubs for two and the win incomplete with Valentine in coverage.  Schneidman

Added together, Love was 17-of-23 passing with four touchdowns and zero interceptions.  Huber [Don't get too excited - Clifford threw 3 TDs as well.  And this is a zero sum scenario - the offense score 7 TDs in 87 minutes of practice against the defense.  It was raining TDs again.  TGR]

RUNNING BACKS:

In the Packers first 11-on-11 session, we saw a lot of 21 personnel with Patrick Taylor as the second running back, and he looked very good as a lead blocker for Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon.  Bretl  [This is the first practice after Emanuel Wilson's "breakout" game.  Blocking and STs might well be requirements for RB #3.  TGR]  2) Emanuel Wilson was working with the second-team offense. Before practice, LaFleur said that Wilson will have to show consistency on special teams and as a blocker.  Bretl

LINEBACKERS:

Brenton Cox Jr. sacked Sean Clifford on fourth down to end backup 2-minute drill. Cox beat Royce Newman off the ball. Clifford was not at all pleased. Slammed the football, looked back at the OL. Dude is fiery.  Wood

Nice pass rush re by Hollins v. Nijman. Quick pass to flat to Jones. No gain.  2)  Enagbare beats Walker, Love escapes up middle finds Wicks for catch a little YAC.   Bretl

DEFENSIVE LINE:

Jonathan Ford really stacking days. Just had a nice run stop at the los.  Herman

Rookie DL Karl Brooks on field with the Packers starting defense for 2-minute drill. Kenny Clark not taking team reps today.  Wood

SECONDARY:

Some clarification here: Jaire Alexander’s practice routine has not changed from last week. He did individual drills, but still no team, even in walkthrough. Carrington Valentine taking those reps.  Herman  [Valentine obviously is CB #3 until Stokes returns.  TGR]

Anthony Johnson got some reps with the 1s.  Huber
