The 2020 offseason has been tough on all NFL teams. The deadly pandemic led to all sorts of complications regarding the whole offseason schedule for all 32 teams. The challenges were no different for the Green Bay Packers’ organization. Coronavirus problems aside, Matt LeFleur’s Packers have a few on-field issues to address amidst ongoing preseasonal training.
There have been various additions to the Packers roster in the last few months. The most notable one being that of rookie quarterback Jordan Love. The Packers traded up to get Love in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft. This came as a shock to fans considering the Wisconsin-based franchise already has Aaron Rodgers on their squad list. Critics will argue that they could have done with reinforcement in the wideout department.
As per a recent podcast, the Packers’ offensive players have not found their feet on the field.

The Packers Podcast hosted by Jim Owczarski and Tom Silverstein is a fan favorite. In this week’s edition of the show, the hosts analyzed the initial preseason training practices held by the Packers. One major observation by them was that Matt LeFleur’s boys practiced for around an hour and a half with pads. Another key observation was that the Packers were not too ‘physical’ in training on Tuesday.

The next point of debate was the fact that Packers’ star quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw quite a few interceptions during practice. There was also a lack of communication amongst the wideouts, Davante Adams and Allen Lazard. Of course, it’s still early days in the league.
