Green Bay Packers Friday camp: Here’s the blow by blow
The Green Bay Packers were back on the field this morning for practice that was followed closely by the beat writers covering the team live from Green Bay.
How did the team look? Who was sitting out? Who stood out this morning? Who ran and caught “touchdowns” this morning?
They tweet just about every play, which we follow here … and provide below.
Enjoy.
Looks like a shorter practice this morning. Only 12 periods on the schedule. Last couple had been 15 and 17 periods.

Jared Abbrederis also not practicing. Not sure on his injury.

Rookie center Corey Linsley is not in pads today. That's new. He had been playing well. pic.twitter.com/4xSd9AoJdf

The projected starting OL all in for the first 11 on 11 play. TJ Lang appears to be healing.

Yesterday, Kevin Dorsey was up front on the Packers' first KR unit. Today, he's getting work as a gunner on the punt team. They like him.

Demetri Goodson getting reps at the other gunner spot, zips past the jam immediately and gets some praise. Can see the point guard in him.

WRs vs. DBs: Boykin great move on Hayward. Grab called on Hayward.

Gerrard Sheppard with a nice deep catch going to the ground on a go route against Ryan White. He's making an impression.
— Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) August 1, 2014
Jamari Lattimore, the quietest guy in the locker room, has a few choice words with offensive players on sideline.

Bostick has caught nearly everything his way in camp. TD grab over bush in coverage in red zone

11 on 9 red zone highlight Tolzien hits bostick on zipped back shoulder throw for TD
— Pete Dougherty (@PeteDougherty) August 1, 2014
Rodgers can't get throw down the middle to Cobb past Hayward. Nice breakup. Had a chance for a pick.
— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) August 1, 2014
Flynn to Davante Adams down seam for a TD. Dennard covering.
— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) August 1, 2014
Eddie Lacy just ran Tramon Williams over on his way to a TD. #Packers
— Paul (@Paulimig) August 1, 2014
Colt Lyerla turns a little late to bLall but still hauls in flynn pass in goal line
— Wes Hodkiewicz (@WesHod) August 1, 2014
Lacy said yesterday his whole "Moss" comment got a little "out of hand." Drops a short dump-off from Rodgers just now.
— Tyler Dunne (@TyDunne) August 1, 2014
Rodgers to Bostick over the middle and Bush strips the ball after the catch.
— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) August 1, 2014
Packers know Mike Daniels can disrupt. Now starting in base, he's getting more work vs the run. Nice stop of Starks at the line just now.
— Tyler Dunne (@TyDunne) August 1, 2014
Crosby with his first FG period since first day. Made from 33, 33, 36 but missed wide right from 40
— Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) August 1, 2014
Cobb holding for Crosby
— Wes Hodkiewicz (@WesHod) August 1, 2014
While they've mixed in Barclay at RG and L.Taylor at LG, this is the first time we've seen the No. 1 offensive line intact for most of day.

Jordy Nelson makes it look easy on that out route. Looked like he had no chance, uses his long arms for a diving catch near the end zone.
— Tyler Dunne (@TyDunne) August 1, 2014
Tolzien zips a touchdown to Davante Adams in the left corner. Looked like Rolle wasn't expecting it.
— Tyler Dunne (@TyDunne) August 1, 2014
Bostick comes back from his fumble with a TD catch in team red zone with @blink182 over the speakers.
— Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) August 1, 2014
James Starks drives his legs at the goal line for a score.
— Tyler Dunne (@TyDunne) August 1, 2014
Rajion Neal getting work on goal line carries. Showed some power
— Wes Hodkiewicz (@WesHod) August 1, 2014
My $.02 on @abbrecadabra: He's standing out at practice watching. Doubt he does that with major injury. Let's be careful out there. #Packers
