New from JS: Neal, Perry start camp on physically unable to perform list http://bit.ly/1tL7u7w #packers

Tyler Dunne ‏@TyDunne 48m
Neal practiced through the spring. Perry did not. Not the way #Packers wanted to start camp. First practice is tomorrow AM.

GOOD TO KNOW SOME THINGS DO NOT EVER CHANGE. NOW MORE CONFUSED THAN EVER OVER FRUSTRATION ABOUT MISSING THE ENTIRE OFFSEASON IF PERRY NOT HEALTHY.

Tom Silverstein ‏@TomSilverstein 23m
I forgot to mention that DT Jerel Worthy is on non-football injury also. So, it means it's not related to his knee injury. #Packers

UH-OH. ANOTHER CHILLAR OR WAS HE DOING WHEELIES ON HIS BIKE LIKE JEFF KEMP?

Here is the shorter, more readable version from Demovsky:

Rob Demovsky ‏@RobDemovsky 1h
#Packers roster update:
PUP: Nick Perry, Mike Neal
Non-football injury: Letroy Guion, Jerel Worthy
Non-football illness: Jeff Janis

What's up with Neale? He finished last season healthy, didn't he? Bet it's a weight room injury...

He not only finished last season relatively healthy, he made it through the offseason and OTA program without a blip.

[Joemailman]

He not only finished last season relatively healthy, he made it through the offseason and OTA program without a blip.

But if he's on the PUP list then the injury has to be related to football. An aggravation of a previous injury? An injury during the physical?

No idea. Dunne at JSO thinks we'll know more tomorrow.

[Guiness]

Maybe he was in charge of the projector and burnt himself on a lightbulb? Those suckers can get hot!

I thought he was on the injury report with an abdominal injury for several games at the end of the season.

Yes, but why was he practicing then in the spring?

[pbmax]

But his attitude is TERRIBLE!! He only played to help facilitate a trade to a team that will let him realize his dream of being an Defensive End in the NFL!!

Perry missed five games last season with a broken foot, but played in the team's final six games (including playoffs) despite fellow outside linebacker Clay Matthews saying he probably shouldn't have.

Camp Day #1 Report (Other People's)

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 8h
Still the Hyde and Burnett show with ones. Banjo and Ha Ha are your second team safeties

#1-MUST NAME BAND "HAHA BANJO". #2 IF BANJO DOESN'T MAKE IT, "MORE HA-HA" IT IS

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 8h
No Pickett. No Jolly. Leading DL in the room, BJ Raji and Mike Daniels, work sleds #Packers

NO COMMENT. JUST SILENT VIGIL.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 8h
Cornerbacks coach Joe Whitt working with his room and star pupils Casey Hayward and Sam Shields #Packers

IF YOU WANT TO BE POSITIVE ABOUT THIS YEAR'S DEFENSE, THEN #1 ON YOUR LIST FOR OPTIMISM IS HAYWARD. #2 IS YOGA.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Looked like Donny Barclay took the first team rep at right guard. Looks like Lang might be limited today based on individual work too

OH GOOD! THE BEST KIND OF VERSATILE BACKUPS ARE THE ONES WHO NEVER PLAY

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Garth Gerhart working with Tolzien. Appears linsley had leap frogged him for two spot at center

HE BENCHED HIM OUT OF LINE

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Sam Gash has been working individually with Eddie Lacy all offseason on short, sharp passes during off periods. Southpaw throws darts

I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW HAPPY I AM THAT SAM GASH IS A PACKER COACH. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Cobb and Tramon shagging Masthay punts in coverage drills

MCCARTHY DON'T CARE

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
By the way, looks like Chris Harper's hamstring healed fine. Back out there. Haunted Charles Johnson and Kevin Dorsey last year

BUT CAN HE SURVIVE THE CURSE OF PATLER'S FAVORABLE OPINION OF HIS CHANCES?

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Richard Rodgers takes first snap at TE with ones

WE NEED TO DO A POLL ABOUT EVERYONE'S OPINION ABOUT RRODGERS BEFORE HE TAKES OVER CAMP

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Bradford and Hubbard are your No 3 OLBs. Mulumba and Palmer worked second team

COREY BARDFORD WILL NOT MAKE IT AS AN NFL OLB. YOU READ IT HERE FIRST.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Quarless lined up opposite Rodgers with first team on run set at start of team. Bo, Rodgers and Quarless atop crowded room it seems

BO RYAN AT CAMP, PLAYING TE.

[pbmax]

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
TJ Lang hasn't done much. Janis not here. Neal, Guion, Worthy and Perry looking on

I BET IF I READ ASK VIC'S CAMP REPORT, THIS INFORMATION WOULD BE SHADED MORE POSITIVELY

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
As @ESPNBobDemovsky pointed out, Carl Bradford has switched to No 54. Jayrone Elliott now 91

BOB DEMOVSKY IS JUST RIDING ROB DEMOVSKY'S COATTAILS

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
I've thought Kevin Dorsey has looked pretty explosive today. Big catch across middle from Tolzien

HAVE THEY LEARNED TO HEAL PACKER HAMSTRINGS?

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Underthrown pass from Flynn but Lyerla couldn't cradled it and popped out. Second drop of period

FINGERS STILL SLIPPERY FROM FIVE GUYS FRIES

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Davon House with good coverage and PD of Nelson in pass from Tolzien

TEASE! TEASE! TEASE! TEASE! TEASE! TEASE! TEASE!

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Matthews with pressure but Rodgers threads the needle to Nelson in coverage of Shields and Hyde

THEY SHOULD PLACE SAME POLE MAGNETS ON THEIR JERSEYS JUST TO HELP AVOID CONTACT

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
Another strike to Nelson in Ha Ha coverage. Was HHCD and Richardson with twos

HA HA HAS COVERAGE NAMED AFTER HIM ON FIRST DAY OF PRACTICE. GREAT. TOO BAD ITS SIMILAR TO A LOT OF COVERAGE FROM 2011.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
It was ok MT @RobDemovsky: I've seen a lot of great throws in camp but the corner route Rodgers just threw to Nelson was among the best.

WHAT DOES BOB HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THIS?

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 6h
Mason Crosby goes 7 of 8 with only miss from 44 left hash

AGAIN, I AM GOING TO START READING ASK VIC FOR INJURY AND CROSBY MISS INFO. COULD IT HAVE KILLED WESHOD TO TYPO THIS AS A 64 YARD MISS?

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 6h
Jordy Nelson having a big day. 41 TD over Antonio Dennard from Rodgers

THUMBS DOWN, WHOEVER CALLED THAT COVERAGE

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 6h
Abbrederis, Hyde, Tramon, Ryan White, Cobb, Myles White taking kickoffs after practice

MCCARTHY STILL DOESN'T CARE

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 6h
Harris, Rajion Neal, Hill, Dorsey, Kuhn, LaDarius Perkins, Goodson, Harper and Starks hanging back during punt return

NO HE DOESN'T

[pbmax]

We need Justin Harrell (the poster) to head to practice to get a Sherrod report.

MM: 2014 training camp. I know I'm excited. Everyone has been buzzing around here all week. Coming off offseason program, good vibe

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Every football team is unique, especially at this period of time. We have 89 men on our roster. Battle starts. Looking for competition

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Coming out of offseason, we had chance to mold football team. This is our most important time of the year. Have to get information

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I haven't seen Clay Matthews personally. Players went for physicals this morning. Staff meeting at 4:30. Info will be presented

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: You walk away from offseason program. I look at big picture

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM on his address to team: It's important to have clear vision, a tight vision of things we need to push envelope on. Like our roster

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: We probably spend too much time on it. You have 2 tighten it down. Video is always better. Hopefully i can deliver talk that can deliver

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM on not listing pad practices: Talking to training staff, we are going through a different sked 2nd half of camp. New in-season schedule.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Your goals will be in pads. That's thought but really how team moves through camp...looking back, we haven't started way we wanted to

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM on no practice before/after preseason game: This is 1st time schedule has changed in nine years. 3rd year we talked about it. Taking leap

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: GPS is something we've had in the building for 3 years. That's a part of data. We have another man coming forward that will impact team

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: It's important for us to take a hard look by position and player, do we have enough personnel groups, variation.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I'm nervous about it. We have 21 practices. We spent a lot of time up in the staff room. 35, 29, now down to 21

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Preseeason games last three years have been a challenge because we've leaned toward evaluation more than winning

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Opportunity for 3 QBs comes down to how the 3rd potential QB performs and what goes on with your football team.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I'm not opposed to keeping 3 QBs. It really depends on the competition of other positions.

[pbmax]

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Running football when you have to is of most importance. I'm excited to see what DuJuan Harris is going to give us

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: This OL IMO has chance to be best that we've had in my time here

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I actually haven't seen Pat McKenzie in quite some time. We're still open to that. Jermichael Finley is a Green Bay Packer IMO

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I don't care what business you're in, you hope you are right with projection. When Ted sits down with our staff, it's about performance

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I like our experience on OL. I like our core with our two guards. I know JC it's his first time. I was impressed with Linsley

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Can't say enough about Don Barclay. Derek Sherrod looks good. You have to feel good about depth on OL

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM on TE: I like our tight ends. We have to get them pad work. That's such a tough group cuz they're asked to do so much.

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Hitting targets, this the 1st year i feel like I got offseason program right. Veterans did a great job of getting practice part right

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: You project your reps and how you're going to play guys, it's a real challenge trying to get whole team evaluated

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I don't think you can ever jeopardize your personnel evaluation. You have block of time to make decisions and you don't get that back

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: That KC game is a critical game for our players. Can't tell you how many times you go into last game of the year and it changes

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: Give our S and C staff credit, I like Mark Lovat is unique. Take a lot of pride that we don't have to do conditioning after practice

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM on tackling: In games? We better tackle in games. No, our tackling drills, we've adjusted them, timing of them

Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod · 7h
MM: I feel like I can improve. When you stop feeling that way, you're lying to yourself. Halftime thing, I don't know how long
