Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
Wondering if #Packers S Morgan Burnett was not a healthy scratch. He was activated vs. Browns, didn't play, now isn't practicing today.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
ILB Jake Ryan, S Morgan Burnett are still out.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
C Matt Rotheram has his left arm in a sling explains why they signed Steuck.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
WR Jeff Janis is here. Has his right hand in a splint and wrapped with an ace bandage.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
#Packers WR Ty Montgomery's absence is not injury related. Just his first rest day since coming off PUP. Easing him back onto field.

Michael Cohen@Michael_Cohen13
Seems the calf issue for Cobb is minor. Made a couple nice grabs on passes from Rodgers in 2-min drill vs. starting defense. #Packers

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
Rodgers went twice to Davante Adams during drill Adams dropped back shoulder against Shields and then couldn't time up on free play.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
Blake Martinez prevented a touchdown to James Starks on cross-field throw from Rodgers.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
If the punters were trying to hit short line drives then they succeeded. Unless they were trying something I don't know about it was brutal

Aaron Nagler@AaronNagler
Hundley getting time with the first team offense.

Aaron Nagler@AaronNagler
Carl Bradford getting a few reps with the first team.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
#Packers QB Brett Hundley gets starter reps in team period, but Aaron Rodgers handled lone 2-minute drill. Hundley missed week, needs reps.

[Patler]

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
If the punters were trying to hit short line drives then they succeeded. Unless they were trying something I don't know about it was brutal

If both were punting the same way, I suspect they were working on something, like lower line-drive punts needed late in the year when playing in gale-force winds at Soldier Field or Lambeau.

Aaron Nagler@AaronNagler
Hundley looks really sharp today. Throwing in rhythm and placing it well nearly every time.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
#Packers rookie WR Trevor Davis makes a nice route adjustment, cutting under CB Demetri Goodson to catch Brett Hundley's sideline pass.

Ryan Wood@ByRyanWood
#Packers WR Geronimo Allison beats CB Josh Hawkins deep, but Hawkins strips it to force incompletion.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
Then on next play ball thrown slightly behind Allisonbounces off his hands and is picked off by Carl Bradford.

Tom Silverstein@TomSilverstein
When OLB Kyler Fackrell gets a one on one rushing outside his quickness is hard to deal with. Even athletic Jason Spriggs has trouble.

Aaron Nagler@AaronNagler
Great job by Adams tracking a deep pass from Rodgers for what would have been a touchdown. Big play from the third year WR.

Pete Dougherty@PeteDougherty
Team drills close with 2 big plays by scout team with Rodgers at QB: Bomb to Adams over Daniel, then Richard Rodgers on seam route

Rodgers ran scout team plays today against Defense Suggests he is possibly not playing this week either.

Rodgers ran scout team plays today against Defense Suggests he is possibly not playing this week either.

Their plan had been for Hundley to get a lot of reps this preseason. With the 1st game cancelled, and Hundley missing the 2nd game, they may want him to play most of the game.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I would sit Rodgers the entire preseason. Timing with receivers? You get that in practice. It's true that Rodgers needs to adjust to real game speed, but that will take all of a series or two in the first game, if that long.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 4m4 minutes ago
OL Matt Rotheram describing biceps injury: "Icing every hour for like 12 hours straight because my arm looked like my calf. It was huge."

[pbmax]

Behold your football savior brought low.

ZOOK

Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde 46m46 minutes ago
Ron Zook on @abbrecadabra's 34-yard free-kick return: "That was all him. I don't know if we blocked anybody ... that's what Jared can do."

Packer Report @PackerReport 46m46 minutes ago
Zook sees Perillo in the mold of Kuhn in that he can line up in a lot of places on special teams.

WELL PERILLO IS SET FOR A 10 YEAR CAREER THEN IF HE CAN BLOCK IN THE BACKFIELD AND RUN A FULLBACK DIVE

Green Bay Packers @packers 46m46 minutes ago
Zook on Jared Abbrederis on special teams: Heck of a returner. Great instincts & can catch the football.

Green Bay Packers @packers 45m45 minutes ago
Zook on Jeff Janis' injury: Feel bad for Jeff...He's got a great attitude. He'll get back as fast as he can & pick up where he left off.

CAPERS

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 42m42 minutes ago
Capers on first game: Good look at young guys. We’ll have a good challenge Thursday. This is an explosive offensive team.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 41m41 minutes ago
Capers on Datone Jones: I thought he got off to a good start Friday night. Good physical plays. We think he can set the edge in the run game

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 40m40 minutes ago
Capers on Matthews: He knows what we do. Just a matter of getting him ready. He still rushed on 3rd down. Not like he’ll lose anything.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 39m39 minutes ago
Capers on ILB: We wanted to make sure we got a good look at Carl Bradford on first and second down. Got a lot of good work.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 39m39 minutes ago
Dom Capers on Joe Thomas and Carl Bradford: "I thought both those guys had a couple flash plays where you saw their ability show up."

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 40m40 minutes ago
Capers using headset: In terms of mechanics, the substitution, that all went very well for the first game.

TOOK ME AWHILE BUT THEY MEAN YOUNG GUYS ON HEADSET

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 40m40 minutes ago
Capers on playing vets: As long as they get practice reps in. If missing practice time, it affects preseason games. We know what they can do

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 38m38 minutes ago
Capers on Dean Lowry: He’s a young guy. We need to continue get a good look at him. Know won’t have Mike Pennel first 4 games.

BENNETT

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 34m34 minutes ago
Edgar Bennett on Lacy: Off to a good start. That was one of the goals, wanted to run the football. First unit did a good job of that.

Packer Report @PackerReport 34m34 minutes ago
Bennett on Lacy: Off to a good start. Goal to run football. First unit did a nice job.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 35m35 minutes ago
Bennett on Perillo: He’s versatile. Has ability to separate and get open. He’ll extend arms and catch away from his body. Strong hands.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 34m34 minutes ago
Bennett on Hundley: He came in and was a positive day. He’ll be evaluated and coach McCarthy will decide on him later in the week.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 34m34 minutes ago
Ty Montgomery was given a rest day. No injury. #Packers

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 34m34 minutes ago
Bennett on Callahan: Managed the run game. Look at his 2-minute drive. Displayed some of his talents. 12 plays, 80 yards, put it in the EZ.

MOSS DON'T GROW FAT ON A ROLLING STONE

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 32m32 minutes ago
Winston Moss on Datone Jones: Really played well. Showed some growth in being able to play all three phases. Set edge. Covered. Pass rushed.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 32m32 minutes ago
Moss on Jones: We don’t want the ebb and flows. He has to keep it going. We want him to perform day in and day out.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 31m31 minutes ago
Moss said Datone Jones dropped a few more pounds during the break between minicamp and training camp. Settling in at outside linebacker.

HE AND LACY ARE SOFT N SMALL!!

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 30m30 minutes ago
Moss on OLB threats: All of them. When was there a game there were 3 safeties in a game and we had two of them. All have pass rush threat.

Packer Report @PackerReport 28m28 minutes ago
Moss likes the number of pass-rushing options he's got at OLB. Jones has made big strides since midseason position change.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 28m28 minutes ago
Moss said ILB Joe Thomas has come on strong. He was "at one point fighting to make the team, and now he has a significant role for us."

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 28m28 minutes ago
Moss on Thomas and Bradford: Joe is person who had a significant role and has grown. See more confidence. Carl, finally the light clicked on

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 28m28 minutes ago
Moss said "the light flicked on" for Carl Bradford against the Browns. Coaches were happy for Bradford, whose work ethic they love. #Packers

I HOPE IT STAYED ON BECAUSE THE GUY ON THE FIELD FOR THE BROWNS GAME CAN DEFINITELY PLAY

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 27m27 minutes ago
Moss on Bradford: Play speed and decision-making. Doesn’t hesitate and strikes with conviction,shows a lot there. Run game can be better.

Packer Report @PackerReport 26m26 minutes ago
Moss on Fackrell: He's athletic. Teams will plan accordingly. So trying to build moves to counteract what offense will do vs. him.

Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood 26m26 minutes ago
Moss on #Packers rookie Kyler Fackrell: "We're trying to find an identity for him." Teams gearing up against his athleticism.

TRGOVAC

Packer Report @PackerReport 24m24 minutes ago
Ringo is "way ahead" of where he was as a rookie last year, Trgo says.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 23m23 minutes ago
Trgovac on Pennel: Not treating him any differently other than would have played him earlier. Giving him his reps in practice.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 23m23 minutes ago
Trgovac on Clark: Very serious young man. Takes in everything you say. Takes his job very seriously. Say something, he writes it down.

[pbmax]

PERRY

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 19m19 minutes ago
Darren Perry on Hyde: Very versatile guy. He’s smart. There’s no worries when he’s on the field. He’s like a starter for us.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 18m18 minutes ago
Perry on young safeties: Smartest group since I’ve been here. All can run. We saw some good things from all those guys.

Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 18m18 minutes ago
Safeties coach Darren Perry said he expected Morgan Burnett to play Friday but "things happen." Burnett missed practice with a back issue.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 17m17 minutes ago
Perry on Brice dropped INT vs. Rodgers: Can’t miss out on those opportunities. But he can catch the football. I’m not worried about him.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 17m17 minutes ago
Perry on HHCD: I think if preference he’d like to roam the field. Buthe’d relish opportunity to cover Gronkowski and guys like that.

Packer Report @PackerReport 17m17 minutes ago
Perry says he'd take Clinton-Dix matched against any tight end in the league.

[pbmax]

WHITT

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 15m15 minutes ago
Joe Whitt on CBs: We have to play better all the way around. Made some plays, but not consistently enough. Numbers good but good rush.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 13m13 minutes ago
Whitt on CBs; We’re going to rotate. Have to make sure everyone has comfort level at each spot and with each other.

Packer Report @PackerReport 13m13 minutes ago
Whitt calls Hyde "rare" because of his versatility. Safety, nickel, dime and even at corner.

Packer Report @PackerReport 13m13 minutes ago
Whitt continues that Hyde is one of 11 best defensive players.

Tom Silverstein @TomSilverstein 12m12 minutes ago
Whitt on depth at CB: At this point, we have a bunch of young guys haven’t proved self. Have one guy. Everyone else needs to come along.

MAN, THAT IS SOME COLD WATER JOE JR.

Packer Report @PackerReport 10m10 minutes ago
Whitt on CB rotation: That will be throughout the season. Will be based on matchups each week. So not a pure "slot" guy. Will change weekly

I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS. TEAMS DON'T ALL PUT SAME KINDA GUY IN SLOT.

Packer Report @PackerReport 10m10 minutes ago
Whitt likes Randall and Rollins are good enough tacklers to play in the slot.

ANKLE BITERS!
