Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Edgerrin Cooper teleports through the like for a tfl. Nice burst to the outside on a toss for MarShawn Lloyd. Sack of Jordan Love by Brandon Cisse off a corner blitz.

Rob Demovsky@RobDemovsky

Rookie Jager Burton is back doing team after an opening day hamstring injury. He’s at left guard with the No. 2 line.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood

Jordan Morgan with a great kick out block vs Brandon Cisse, who again is getting 1 reps. Morgan reaches Cisse on perimeter, leading MarShawn Lloyd on toss. Overpowered the rookie corner 1v1, which is expected, but good footwork to square him up in space. Showed his athleticism.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Really nice run by Pierre Strong up the middle. He’s had a really solid start to camp. Now a nice inside run by Damien Martinez. The run game looking much better with the pads on. Nice pressure off the edge by LVN. He’s had the better of Kinnard for sure so far in camp.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Zaire Franklin all over an inside run by Lloyd. False start by Jordan Morgan. Love to Watson on a strike over the middle off play action. Nice pickup for the offense. DDS with an immediate run stuff of MarShawn Lloyd.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood

Jonathan Gannon showing a willingness to blitz the perimeter. Brandon Cisse would’ve had a sack chasing down Jordan Love. Later on, Benjamin St-Juste and would Jaylen Simpson converge at Tyrod Taylor. Some creativity in the playbook.

Matt Schneidman@mattschneidman

Carrington Valentine has a hamstring injury. So does UDFA rookie TE R.J. Maryland. Both aren’t practicing.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Love again to Golden over the middle. He’s been razor sharp so far. And as I type that he missed a throw wide to Skyy Moore. That’s my fault. Morgan great pass pro on LVN Anddd another strike to Watson on a crosser from Love. Beautiful play. Great protection by Belton.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Love throws a back shoulder to Melton but not on the same page. Melton keeps running and doesn’t turn around. McDuffie all over a screen to Skyy Moore. Stops Moore for a very short gain on the next play as well. Solid rush from Oliver vs Brant Banks. Jaylin Simpson nice Pbu vs Sturdivant.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood

Jordan Love throws wide of Jayden Reed on a cross, and Xavier McKinney makes a diving interception. McKinney showing off his ball skills on that pick.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

What a fricken ball by Tyrod Taylor and an even better catch by Bo Melton right along the sideline with Simpson in coverage. Beautiful play. Good for about 30 yards.

Great burst to the outside on a run by Lloyd. Pressure by Coop. Not sure if it would have been a sack. Love hits Reed for a huge pickup that might have gone for 60 to the house.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Smack: 33 yard - wide right (we think) 40 yard - good 43 yard - good 48 yard - good 55 yard - not even remotely close. Another 3/5 day so far.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Love to Watson deep. Great ball. Very contested. Put it on Watson but he couldn’t hang on through the ground. Tough play by Watson but it was there. Cisse & Williams in coverage. One Watson was upset he didn’t catch. Moore drop from Love on the next play.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Great burst to the outside on a run by Lloyd. Pressure by Coop. Not sure if it would have been a sack. Love hits Reed for a huge pickup that might have gone for 60 to the house.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

Nice run stuff by Karl Brooks. Combined pressure from DDS and McClellan on Taylor. Would have been a sack. Nice pass pro by Burton on DDS. Anthony Campbell in on a run stuff of Martinez behind the line. Side note: I do not believe Domani Jackson has done any team drills through 5 days.

Andy Herman@AndyHermanNFL

2 minute drill. 50 seconds left. Ball on own 30. Down by 2. No timeouts. First & 10. 1’s up first:

1. Love to Watson for a first. Clock ticks. Williams with a pressure.
2. Love up the seem to Reed. Looked like a great ball but Reed couldn’t get hands on it. Good coverage by Bullard.
3. Immediate pressure by Brooks. Love over the middle but Reed slips. 22 seconds left. 3rd and 10. Ball on own 44.
4. Love to Reed for a first down out of bounds. Ball to the 34. Love looked like he might have been sacked but they don’t call it.
5. Love had Watson deep down the right sideline but Love missed it to the outside. Incomplete.
6. Incomplete throw to the left just to waste time. Smack on for the 52 yard fg for the win: no good off the left upright.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood

On third-and-16, Tyrod Taylor hits Will Sheppard on a go ball down the middle against Mark Perry. Two plays earlier, Perry laid it Sheppard over the middle. This play, Sheppard catches it for 61 yards, setting up a 33-yard field goal from Trey Smack.

Bill Huber@BillHuberNFL

LB TJ Quinn with a brilliant INT. Smack gets to kick anyway and nails one from 51 to end practice

[bobblehead]

If he changes it to cinco cero I might have an issue though.

Matt Schneidman
@mattschneidman

Zach Tom is no longer Zach Tom. He legally changed his name to Zach Bako-Bewele, a combination of his grandparents’ Nigerian last names. “Especially when I start having kids, I want to have a name that I can pass down where it represents where they came from, where I came from.”

I'll call him Kunta Kentae or Kareem Abdul Jabbar or Muhammad Ali or anything else he wants as long as he shuts down the pass rush.

[texaspackerbacker]

ZBB is fine - just so he performs like an all pro, not a Nigerian prince.

Maybe he just didn't want his nieces and nephews calling him Uncle ......

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Hell of a strike from Love to Savion in team. Savion has a pretty sizable wrap on his leg. Big play for him though. False start by Skyy Moore. Really nice cutback on a run by Pierre Strong. Javon Bullard getting work at safety with the 2’s.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Donovan Jennings with back to back high snaps that result in a dead play. He switches with John Williams after that. Anthony Campbell showing up again with a batted down pass at the line. Just fantastic size at 6’6”. He’s a huge dude.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Barryn Sorrell reads a rollout perfectly, sticking with Whyle and limiting him to a very short gain. Praise from Gannon after. Golden on a crosser from Love for a handful but what was impressive was Cisse running with him and keeping the gain short. Not many running with Golden

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Zaire Franklin with great coverage on Whyle up the seam. Nothing there but Jordan tried to hit him but there was no chance. Chris McClellan with an impressive pass rush inside. Love throws deep to Watson and gets it there but Watson has to make a diving catch but can’t hold on

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

LVN with back to back wins vs Darian Kinnard per
@AaronNagler
. Run stuff on Lloyd by Zaire. Cisse with a Pbu on a play where Melton tripped on the play. Cox beats Glover easily. Another batted down pass by Campbell!!!

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Wide receiver sweep out of the backfield for Savion Williams which will shock you went nowhere and probably lost yards. Collin Oliver absolutely nuked Dalton Cooper for a sack. Impressive speed rush from Oliver. Best I’ve seen from him.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Trey Smack: Good 28 Good 33 No good 39 - low snap - kick went left Good 42 No good 45 - wide left 3/5 to start things off for Smack.

Rob Demovsky
@RobDemovsky

CB Carrington Valentine dropped out of practice before any team periods. Brandon Cisse has been with the 1s for the 11 on 11s.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Red Zone: Taylor to Lachey for a td in red zone. Love’s ball batted down at the Los. Love overthrows Reed on a corner route. Bullard with tight coverage on Reed in the back of the end zone. Would have been out anyway. Love to Melton for a td running to his left.

Ryan Wood
@ByRyanWood

For your records, #Packers have hook and ladder in their playbook. Tyrod Taylor throws stop route to Bo Melton, who laterals back to Pierre Strong Jr. Strong finds end zone down sideline for 20-yard TD. Matt LaFleur teasing his new DC with that one.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Packers needed a touchdown on a play from about 30 yards out. Nixon breaks up a pass to Golden that didn’t really have a chance. Interesting lineup note. Packers went with a 3 deep safety look. Xavier McKinney - Evan Williams - Edgerrin Cooper. No thats not a typo.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Anthony Campbell jumps offsides for a free play. Complete to Sturdivant who comes up with his second catch of the day. Drones tries twice to hit tight ends up the seam but nothing doing. And that actually does it for practice.

[Joemailman]

I would think calling them into his office middle of last season (or earlier) would have been a more effective tactic.

Well, they can talk, but MLF doesn't report to Gute. Gute is not MLF's boss. They both report to Policy.

[bobblehead]

I feel like LVN broke out around his injury riddled season and that is being confirmed in camp so far. Putting it on the record. LVN has a big year if he stays healthy.

[bobblehead]

I think it was MiLF and Gutes is learning. By not signing Walker to an extension after the season, which would not have been expensive, he basically forced MLF's, and maybe Steno's hand. They have to play Morgan at LT.

[Joemailman]

I just can't put it on MiLF. Gutes had the option of trading Walker before camp or the season and didn't. This time around he traded Wicks to clear the way for his Golden boy. Maybe it was MiLF and Gutes is learning.

There wasn't the tackle depth he had at WR. Walker was important insurance even if you don't view him as a starter. The thing we fans probably overcooked was the expected contract that Walker was going to get.

[bobblehead]

Its the second comment along these lines he's made.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Another successful WR screen (Reed had one yesterday). Moore takes one downfield from Taylor with the 2’s. Jacobs with a good burst to the outside for a nice gain. Good bounce from #8. Golden skies for an impressive contested catch. Really nice play from #0.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Big Anthony Campbell just got some reps with the ones. McClellan primarily working with the 2’s so far which is interesting. McClellan has been getting plenty of snaps with the 1s in the first two practices. It’s been Stackhouse, Brinson, Brooks and Campbell so far w the 1s

weston hodkiewicz
@WesHod

First team period ends with Jonathan Ford getting some push inside and meeting Martinez in the hole

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

DDS with a nice pressure inside vs. Williams & Jennings. Sturdivant nice win on a slant from Tyrod. Taylor overthrows Neyor deep. Really good coverage from Cisse too. Johnathan Baldwin off the edge untouched for a sack of Taylor.

22m
Two minute drill. 1:00 left. Tie game. 1 timeouts Ball on own 35. First and 10.
1. Reed from Love for a really nice gain along the sidelines and out of bounds. Ball on opposing 42. Great ball from 10.
2. Love to Golden over the middle. First down. Clock ticks. Opposing 28 yard line.
3. Love to Watson in the end zone but 9 can’t hold on. Love put it in a great spot. Couldn’t tell if Nixon got a piece of it. Sounds like he might have. 25 seconds left.
4. Love to Savion along the sidelines on an out route. Tough diving play but catchable. Williams can’t hold on. Incomplete. Valentine on coverage.
5. 20 seconds left. 3rd and 10. 1 timeout remaining.

Ball to Moore over the middle. Pbu by Nixon. Two nice plays from 25 on the drive! Drive stalls. Would have ended in a fg attempt but no kicking today. Drive ends.

Ryan Wood
@ByRyanWood

Keisean Nixon, who had a pressure to force incompletion in first team period, with a pair of PBUs in end of half drill to get a defensive stop. Blanketed Christian Watson downfield in sideline fade, then shut down Skyy Moore on third-and-10 dig to middle. He’s flying around.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

Couple noteworthy plays on the 2 minute drive for the 3s: Big Anthony Campbell gets his hands up to deflect a pass straight up but Campbell and Oliver fight for the INT and it falls incomplete. Couple nice first down completions for McCord to Sturdivant on a key third down and later to Neyor. Hit Prather for a first down on a slant as well. McCord led the team down to the opposing 21ish yard line. Nice job overall.

Andy Herman
@AndyHermanNFL

McClellan back getting some reps with the ones. This is also the first time I’ve seen Jonathan Ford get time with the ones. McClellan with an immediate run stuff of Jacobs for no gain. Bull with Pbu on a pass to Reed. Valentine with a PBU along the sidelines on a throw to Golden. So far it’s been Valentine and Nixon with the ones all day and they’ve been really good. Bobble on a handoff between Love and Lloyd but Lloyd was able to hang on. Brooks - Cooper and LVN combine for a stuff of Lloyd at the line.

Ryan Wood
@ByRyanWood

Matthew Golden just upped this. Catches a 20-yard fade down right sideline from Jordan Love. Keisean Nixon had great leverage on sideline, but Golden shielded him with his back and caught over his shoulder in same motion. Tremendous body control, best catch of camp, pt 2.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Tyler Kraft activated. Like charcoal.

Pretty sure his name is Kentucky. Goes by “Tucker.”

[pbmax]

On the other hand...

The guy is snakebit. His formerly lacerated kidney is exacting revenge.
