GREEN BAY, Wis. The Green Bay Packers on Friday announced the starting times for next weeks practices.Following Fridays Family Night the fifth consecutive day of practice coach Matt LaFleur will give the Packers an off-day on Saturday. Theyll get back work with practices on Sunday (12:30 p.m.), Monday (10:30 a.m.), Tuesday (closed to the public) and Wednesday (10:30 a.m.). The team will fly to San Francisco Kevin Newman Jersey on Thursday for Friday nights preseason opener at the San Francisco 49ers.After that, only two practices remain that will be open to fans. Those are the joint practices on Tuesday, Aug. 16 and Wednesday, Aug. 17 against the New Orleans Saints.Were not really at that point yet, general manager Brian Gutekunst said of intensive roster evaluations. I think were trying to allow these guys to get into a comfort zone, to compete. Every rep in practice is important, but when we get to these preseason games and how they react between those white lines without a coach in their ear, that is where well really start to focus in on that. And as we get closer to that Kansas City game, well start to have those conversations like, Do we have what we need right now? Do we need to go outside the building to try and fill some of those needs? But I think weve got good competition acro s the board. As we deal with the injuries the next three or four weeks, well probably have to move some things around to get our numbers. But I like the competition, I like the way theyve worked. I think their urgency and intensity has risen each day.Here is the updated schedule, with 12 practices this summer being open to fans.Wednesday, July 27 (10:30 a.m.)Thursday, July 28 (10:30 a.m.) Saturday, July 30 (10:30 a.m.) Monday, Aug. 1 (10:30 a.m.)Tuesday, Aug. 2 (10:30 a.m.)Wednesday, Aug. 3 (closed to public)Scroll to ContinueThursday, Aug. 4 (10:30 a.m.)Friday, Aug. 5 (Family Night, 7:30 p.m.)Sunday, Aug. 7 (12:30 p.m.)Monday, Aug. 8 (10:30 a.m.)Tuesday, Aug. 9 (closed to public)Wednesday, Aug. 10 (10:30 a.m.)Friday, Aug. 12: Preseason Game 1: at San Francisco 49ers, 7:30 p.m.Tuesday, Aug. 16 (joint practices against New Orleans Saints)Wednesday, Aug. 17 (joint practices against New Orleans Saints)Friday, Aug. 19: Preseason Game 2: vs. New Orleans Saints, 7 p.m.Thursday, Aug. 25: Preseason Game 3: at Kansas City Chiefs, 7 p.m.This is the 77th training camp in franchise history, a tradition started by Curly Lambeau in 1946. For the third consecutive year, the team will not call Pittsburgh Pirates Jersey St. Norbert College its training camp home. This time, it will be due to upgrades of SNCs residence halls. Prior to COVID in 2020, the team had called Chris Archer Jersey SNC its training camp home since 1958.Here is a series of photos of one of the great training camp traditions, players riding kids' bikes, through the lenses of Imagn.<br>2525 ImagesHere are the 40 most-important players on the roster at the start of Green Bay Packers training camp. No. 40: WR Romeo DoubsJersey No. 87; 6-2, 204; rookie; NevadaAt Nevada, Romeo Doubs caught pa ses from Carson Strong. Strong is no slouch but hes also no Aaron Rodgers. Doubs admitted to being a bit star-struck after catching pa ses from Rodgers at minicamp.At one point, yeah, because I grew up watching him play with receivers like Donald Driver, and the list goes on, Doubs said. Its very shocking for me but, after today, getting that feel of his trajectory of the ball, how it comes, Im able to pick it up now and just focus on the next day.Thriving in Nevadas Air Raid system, Doubs was one of the most productive receivers in the cla s. In four seasons, he caught 224 pa ses for 3,322 yards (14.8 average) and 26 touchdowns. He had 40-plus receptions in every season and 1,000-plus yards as a junior and senior. As a senior, he hauled in 80 pa ses for 1,109 yards (13.9 average) and 11 touchdowns. In what could be a major added bonus, he averaged 12.5 yards per punt return with one touchdown in four seasons.Doubs was a big-time deep threat at Nevada, and thats a niche the Packers must fill after losing Marquez Valdes-Scantling in free agency. At 6-foot-1 7/8, Doubs ran his 40 in 4.53 seconds at pro day. Thats not exactly comparable to MVSs Jameson Taillon Jersey 4.37 at the 2018 Combine, but Doubs showed that long-ball prowe s on more than one occasion during the offseason practices.He plays fast, runs by a lot of people, so were good there. The 40s great but that play speed on tape is real, general manager Brian Gutekunst said.The Packers have to replace the production of Davante Adams and Valdes-Scantling. But thats not the only reason why Doubs landed in a good spot in the fourth round.My mothers a Green Bay fan, he said after being drafted. I just think its really great to just be a part of something that she can really root for, along with myself knowing the history of just playing for Green Bay. I know a lot about Aaron Rodgers. I know a lot about Davante Adams. Unfortunately, I know hes gone, but I just know its an opportunity for me to really play for the organization, whether its helping on the field or just helping off the field. Im just ble sed and thankful to be a part of something really special.***Up next are four outside linebackers. On their own, none rank in the 30s. But somebody has to be the No. 3 outside linebacker behind Rashan Gary and Preston Smith.I love four guys, new position coach Jason Rebrovich said. Four legit guys that you can sub them in, sub them out, whether its situational Erik Gonzalez Jersey , red zone, two-minute, third-down packages. Youre going to trot those two guys that we know about out there on the first play of the game, but it doesnt mean that theyre just going to be the primary players out there. No. 39: OLB Tipa GaleaiJersey No. 40; 6-5, 229; second season; Utah StateThere werent many bigger believers in Tipa Galeai than his old position coach, Mike Smith.Talking about Rashan when he was younger, the more you play, the better you get, Smith said late last season. With Tipa, I know theres something in there. I think Ive got decent eyes seeing talent and seeing talent in different people that bring different things to the table. With him, hes a slippery-type rusher that we dont have. All our guys are big and strong, which is good. Were built on a lot of stuff like that. But he brings something to the table.In a room full of 250-plus-pound bruisers, Galeai is the guy with the potential to win on quicks. He had 10.5 sacks during his junior season at Utah State in 2018, five sacks as a senior and joined the Packers as an undrafted free agent in 2020. Playing off the bench for the final seven games of last season, he averaged 21.7 snaps and contributed 12 tackles and one sack. Of Green Bays six outside linebac
