Packers News: Aaron Jones should start Week 3, Jimmy Graham impresses
A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Sunday, July 29.
Good morning and welcome to the Packers News Report.
We’re another Sunday closer to the return of Green Bay Packers football. The countdown reaches 42 days, which means that in six weeks time, we’ll all be getting excited for the evening kickoff against the Chicago Bears at Lambeau Field.
In fact, if you include preseason, there is only one more week in 2018 with no Packers football (not including their bye week, of course).
Yesterday the team completed its third practice of training camp. There is no practice today, but they will return on Monday morning at 11:15 a.m CT.
Let’s begin the Packers News Report. Here’s a roundup of the latest articles from around the internet.

Aaron Jones should start at running back after suspension (Lombardi Ave)
It’s going to be interesting to see how head coach Mike McCarthy uses his running backs this season. Will he use a running back-by-committee approach as he’s suggested this offseason, or will one of the backs take on a featured role? Lombardi Ave’s Evan Siegel believes Aaron Jones should be the starter at running back once he returns from a two-game suspension. I completely agree.

Joe Kipp of NFL Spin Zone writes about Jimmy Graham, who according to reports, has been impressing early on at training camp. Graham could be a huge addition to Green Bay’s offense this season.
