Countdown to camp: Overhaul at inside LB continues

The following is the sixth installment in a series of stories that’s examining the Packers’ roster position by position. The series continues with the linebackers.

GREEN BAY – Two questions regarding the Packers’ overhaul at inside linebacker were answered during OTAs this spring.

First, Clay Matthews will continue taking some snaps inside, just as he did in the second half of 2014. Matthews’ inside-outside versatility is a tool Defensive Coordinator Dom Capers appears interested in using even more extensively this season.

Second, one starting job in the base defense belongs to Sam Barrington heading into training camp.
