2018 Training Camp — Practice #9


Last Monday’s 2018 Packers Training Camp Practice #9 (yes, we get behind a little bit in these posts) started with S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (#21) riding into practice on one of the kids’ bikes, wearing a “Minion” mask. Some of the DBs have been doing this during camp. That’s normal, right?


It’s nice to see trash cans getting more than just the normal use. We’re these are special “for football purposes only” trash cans.


Rookie LB Oren Burks (#42) reaches and grabs a pass during an early drill.

DBs catching balls from the JUGS machine — CB Quinten Rollins (#24), S Martin Evans (#25), and S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (#21).


Here’s a wider photo of the whole group.

I think we’ve got us a good punter, folks — rookie J.K. Scott (#6).

What a beautiful sight.

LB Clay Matthews (#52) stops short of sacking QB Aaron Rodgers (#12) — because no one lays a hand on anyone wearing a red jersey!


Undrafted rookie free agent QB Tim Boyle (#8) has a great arm and poise on the field.


K Mason Crosby (#2) has some field goal practice, with P J.K. Scott (#6) holding.


Two veterans — WR Randall Cobb (#18) and WR Davante Adams (#17).

That’s it folks, until next time.
