Packers roundup: Preseason winners and losers, predicting 53-man roster
A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Sunday, August 11.
Welcome to the Packers News Report. There are just four more weeks to go until the regular season returns. Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur will be preparing his team for their first road trip of the year as they take on the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday evening in their second preseason game.
The team will practice today and Tuesday, but not on Monday or Wednesday, ahead of the game on Thursday in Baltimore. How much game action (if any) will the starters have against the Ravens? Most of the starters sat out of Thursday’s win over the Houston Texans, and it will be interesting to see whether Coach LaFleur takes a similar approach next week.
Before the next game, there’s plenty of analysis from the preseason opener, right here in Sunday’s Packers News Report.
