Cheese Curds, 8/22: Last week of camp sets up Packers’ final position battles

The Green Bay Packers have now closed down their practices to the public as the team enters the last week of training camp. The preseason finale in Kansas City is coming up on Friday evening and with it is the last chance for players on the roster bubble to make their case for a spot on the 53-man roster or, perhaps, the 16-man practice squad.

The returns of David Bakhtiari and Elgton Jenkins from the PUP list mean that there are one or two fewer spots to be had on the offensive line. Zach Tom certainly has one of them, but he’s instead fighting for playing time with the likes of Jake Hanson and Royce Newman on the right side of the line.
