The wait is finally over. The Green Bay Packers are in town to get ready for the new season.
Players riding bikes to practice. Undrafted rookies becoming fan favorites. Jordan Love being Jordan Love. It marks the beginning of a new journey for this Packers team, one they hope ends in less heartbreak than the meltdown at Soldier Field six months ago.
There's also a lot on the line. While many starting spots are already locked in, there are notable positional battles at cornerback, kicker, and for depth across the roster. A few veterans are on the hot seat to begin the summer.
With the practices coming in thick and fast, it can be difficult keeping up with the action. We've got you covered. Bookmark this page, check back regularly, and we'll keep you up to date with the latest from Packers training camp.

Top lessons learned at Packers training camp so far
Matthew Golden is showing breakout signs
The Packers need second-year Matthew Golden to take on a bigger role following the departures of Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks. So far, so good.
Golden has taken a lot of snaps in the X role, which was vacated by Doubs. He has been one of the standouts of training camp and put on a show at Family Night. It sure looks like Golden could be poised for a breakout second season.
Packers' pass rush is failing to deliver consistently without Micah Parsons
There have been moments. Dani Dennis-Sutton looked good in the first padded practice. Lukas Van Ness is showing promise. Barryn Sorrell has made some plays in the first-team defense. But collectively, the Packers' edge-rushers aren't getting it done consistently. It shows just how badly they miss Micah Parsons. It will help once Devonte Wyatt and Javon Hargrave are at 100 percent, too.

Trey Smack's struggles continue, but Packers remaining patient
Kicker Trey Smack had a rocky offseason, and the sixth-round rookie has made a tough start to training camp. He has shown off a strong leg, but Green Bay crosswinds have created some issues for him. The Packers have removed the competition from the roster, making it highly likely to be Smack's job. Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur have spoken about the need for patience, but they need their kicker to improve his consistency.

Packers focused on increasing their tempo on offense
This is potentially a big deal. The Packers' offense has run at a frustratingly slow tempo in recent years, but we've seen more no-huddle and a quicker pace in the first week of camp. Matt LaFleur said it was a "big point of emphasis" this offseason. The result? It could lead to Jordan Love getting more opportunities to throw the ball, which is exactly what this offense needs in 2026.

Jordan Love to run more?
This stood out in the first practice of the summer. Reporters from practice, including Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, noted that Love had scored two rushing touchdowns. Matt LaFleur said in the offseason that it was an "area of emphasis" for the offense to improve when plays break down, a hint that Love needed to be a more willing scrambler. Something to watch as camp goes on.

Latest practice updates
Tuesday, August 11
- The Packers had multiple players return from injury: Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, Carrington Valentine, and Josh Whyle were back out there
- Javon Bullard remained out due to a foot injury
- Per ESPN's Rob Demovsky, Trey Smack converted four of his five field goals, taking his tally to 20 of 28 for training camp

- According to Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com, Golden and Reed were stood on the sideline during team drills, which is "usually a good sign"
- Bullard was spotted in a walking boot, although he said it's precautionary and that he could play if the Packers had a game tomorrow

Sunday, August 9
- Javon Hargrave is practicing for the first time at training camp
- Chris Brooks is also back after beginning camp on the non-football injury list
- Per ESPN's Rob Demovsky, Zach Bako-Bewele has returned to team drills, but interestingly, Jacob Monk is starting at right guard over Anthony Belton

- Javon Bullard dropped out of practice due to an injury
- Keisean Nixon spent time playing with the second-team defense, a potential sign that he isn't guaranteed to start this season. Something to watch
- Anthony Belton also lost first-team reps to Jacob Monk at right guard. Another story to watch closely
- With several Packers receivers out, Savion Williams made the most of his opportunities with a big day
Friday, August 7: Family Night
- According to Mike Spofford of Packers.com, Trey Smack hit a field goal in warm-ups from 62 yards that "might've been good from 64 or 65"
- Smack then converted six of his seven field goals, an encouraging performance
- Matthew Golden dominated in one-on-one drills vs. Keisean Nixon
- Golden then caught a 50-yard touchdown pass from Jordan Love
- Brandon Cisse continued to impress, holding his own in one-on-one drills against Christian Watson. It was a fun battle
- The offensive line had some ups-and-downs. It remains a big question
- There were some injury scares, with Cisse, Chris McClellan, and Jacob Monk among the players to leave practice, but they all sound OK. It may have been a cramp issue
Notable injury updates
WR Matthew Golden and WR Jayden Reed
Matthew Golden (toe) and Jayden Reed (ankle) both missed two practices after Family Night, but they have since returned. Nothing to worry about.
RB Josh Jacobs
According to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, Josh Jacobs isn't practicing on Thursday, August 6, due to a groin injury. Schneidman adds that the injury isn't believed to be "anything concerning," but it's something to monitor nonetheless. Jacobs missed the Family Night practice on Friday and hasn't returned to practice yet.
Edge Micah Parsons
The Packers have placed Micah Parsons on the PUP list, as expected. While Green Bay can activate him at any moment, he will likely remain inactive throughout camp. Parsons is seven months removed from ACL surgery but requires at least a nine-month recovery window before he can return to football activities.

TE Luke Musgrave
Luke Musgrave is on the PUP list. Brian Gutekunst revealed that Musgrave is dealing with a neck injury and that the Packers are unsure of the severity and will "take our time."
"Luke's dealing with something right now that was a little bit unexpected, so we'll kind of see how that goes," Gutekunst said. "We're working through it to see if it's going to be something long-term or not. With heads, necks, and hearts, it's a little bit more sensitive than some of the other injuries."
