New #Packers CB Nate Hobbs is an intense player. Thatโ€™s what we heard when he was signed and it was no lie. Evident on the field in these early practices.

Rookie WR Savion Williams almost makes a great diving catch on a deep ball from Willis, but canโ€™t hang on as he hits the ground. Willis follows up with a bullet over the middle to Hardman, hits him in stride. #Packers QB2 sure throws a nice ball.

It's been impossible not to notice #Packers LB Isaiah Simmons during the first couple of camp practices. Here's more on the free agent and former top 10 pick looking for a reset in Green Bay: Emplify Health by Bellin packers.com/news/packers-lโ€ฆ

There's been some interesting conversations this week in Insider Inbox. We keep the banter going, as usual: packers.com/news/inbox-eveโ€ฆ

When MarShawn Lloyd was injured last year, he still rode to #Packers practice every day with Josh Jacobs, who is a big believer in what the young RB can add to the offense.

LB Edgerrin Cooper had 13 TFLs last season, most by a #Packers rookie since Clay Matthews had 17 in 2009. And Cooper played just over 400 snaps, barely more than 50% of the defenseโ€™s total.

Loveโ€™s first 2 throws of #Packers practice are on the money to Wicks & Doubs on deep crossers. Then on his first snap, Willis fakes out the D with a zone read run into a nice alley down the right side.

First offenseโ€™s play-action game is on point for #Packers. Another Love completion to Doubs, then end around with Golden off a middle fake.

Carrington Valentine with his second pick in 2 days off Willis in #Packers 2-min. Hicks fell down on stutter-go route and lob was right in CVโ€™s hands.

Loveโ€™s 2-min (end of half scenario) gets stalled after slant to Doubs, as McKinney breaks up short throw for Kraft, then coverage forces scramble. #Packers

Nixon with a nice breakup on a deep lob for Doubs, which appeared to be underthrown a bit by Love. But next play, Love buys time, steps up and lets it rip downfield for Wicks, hits him in stride for long TD. #Packers

Offense for #Packers with some ball-security issues today. Jacobs had one punched out by Hobbs (recovered by Doubs), Kraft had one punched out by Bullard (recovered by McKinney), and Brooks dropped a wide open pass in the flat.
