LB Manoa Pikula is the only player not practicing today. Left the field Thursday grabbing his right hamstring. #Packers

Abbrederis tough leaping catch at end line, ref at goal line signaled TD, looked like only one foot down though(no ref at end line)

— Pete Dougherty (@PeteDougherty) July 30, 2016

#Packers CB Robertson Daniel with a couple defended passes today. He's gotten beat a couple times in camp, but looking pretty good overall.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Returning practice squaders Rob Daniel and Ed Williams having a nice offseasons. Both making plays when they're there #PackersCamp

Cobb leaps to snag bullet from Rodgers on quick post for TD. Tough to defend that #PackersCamp

— Mike Spofford (@mikespofford) July 30, 2016

One play after Janis drop, Jared Abbrederis makes diving catch of Rodgers pass in end zone. Wonder how moments like that register with a QB.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Jeff Janis drops a sure TD from Aaron Rodgers, ball a bit behind him. Next snap Jared Abbrederis snags TD from Rodgers on a fade. #Packers

— Michael Cohen (@Michael_Cohen13) July 30, 2016

#Packers QB Aaron Rodgers throws well behind Jeff Janis. Janis adjusts, drops ball when it hits his hands. Rodgers offers encouraging clap.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Fairly heavy dose of screens to James Starks today in a variety of 11-on-11 drills. Looks to be an emphasis once again. #Packers

— Michael Cohen (@Michael_Cohen13) July 30, 2016

Big edge to Tim Masthay in the punting competition. Averaged 55.3 yds/4.59 hang time compared to 42.75/4.25 for Peter Mortell.

— Rob Demovsky (@RobDemovsky) July 30, 2016

Masthay very consistent today punting with wind: 59, 53, 48, 59. Mortell starts out 53 and 62 and then a pair of 28 yard mishits.

Three #Packers WRs getting mostly first-team reps: Cobb, Adams, Janis. When Jordy Nelson returns, curious to see if Adams or Janis demoted.

Rodgers and Abbrederis connect on one of the prettiest plays in camp. Seam route vs zone and Rodgers puts it on a line right on his hands.

— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) July 30, 2016

#Packers interchanging personnel, but 2nd Oline mostly: LT Spriggs, LG Barclay, C Rotheram, RG Walker, RT Murphy. Barclay took C reps too.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Sloppy team drills at practice today, particularly presnap penalties and QB/center shotgun exchange. Can tell it's second day in pads.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Nice play by rookie Blake Martinez in the red zone drill. Sniffed out a screen to Starks and tagged him off in the flat. #Packers

— Michael Cohen (@Michael_Cohen13) July 30, 2016

Nick Perry destroys Justin Perillo and blows up a running play. Lacy would have been dropped for a 4-yard loss.

— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) July 30, 2016

In 2-minute, #Packers had Julius Peppers as interior rusher next to Mike Daniels. Peppers told me this summer he'll rush interior more.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Joe Whitt had Sam Shields and LaDarius Gunter outside and Rollins and Hyde inside in the dime in 2-minute. Randall coming off bench.

— Tom Silverstein (@TomSilverstein) July 30, 2016

#Packers O gets TD in 2-minute. Key was Aaron Rodgers to Richard Rodgers for 17 yards on 3rd & 10. RR took ball away from Quinten Rollins.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Jason Spriggs four pass-block wins today came against Nick Perry, Kyler Fackrell and Reggie Gilbert (twice).

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Jason Spriggs with another really good showing in one on ones. Met a bull rush from Nick Perry on Thurs and recovered. Held own again today

— Wes Hodkiewicz (@WesHod) July 30, 2016

#Packers rookie OT Jason Spriggs was 4-0 in one-on-one pass blocking Thursday, repeated 4-0 today. Now 8-0 in camp. Impressive showing.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

#Packers first-round rookie DT Kenny Clark has won all five of his 1-on-1 battles in camp, twice against JC Tretter. Nice start for him.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Coach Mike McCarthy met with the media prior to practice. He shot down the idea of Green Bay taking seven wide receivers into the regular season.

McCarthy on #Packers WRs: "We want to make sure we have five or six that can play all four positions."

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

Everyone wants answers now, but MM says he's conscious not to get "too high or too low" on anybody until camp's second week. Takes time.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

McCarthy said the team came out of the first padded practice "pretty good" in health-wise. Will be interesting to see if anyone sits today.

— Michael Cohen (@Michael_Cohen13) July 30, 2016

#Packers coach Mike McCarthy said yesterday, first nonpractice day of camp, was full of meetings. Working out Canton logistics.

— Ryan Wood (@ByRyanWood) July 30, 2016

An old friend returned to the practice field today. Tight end Jermichael Finley was in attendance.
