Posted by on August 11, 2014 – 1:13 pm
GREEN BAY–Monday’s practice provided even more evidence Clay Matthews’ right thumb is, indeed, getting stronger, as the star linebacker participated in spirited half-line drills. Matthews set the edge on one particular play by authoring possibly the loudest thump of the drill.
It was one of the longest half-line periods of training camp, in a practice that was especially dedicated to the running game. It even featured a brief skirmish.
Safety Morgan Burnett was back in full gear. Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams, Joe Thomas, Rajion Neal and Josh Boyd did not practice.
Packers.com will provide a “News now!” report from Coach Mike McCarthy’s post-practice press conference.
