Kicking remains a concern for Packers as Narveson struggles early in his rookie season

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Finding a reliable kicker was one of the Green Bay Packers’ main objectives throughout training camp.

Four weeks into the season, that remains an issue.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur says he continues to believe in rookie Brayden Narveson, who already has missed four field-goal attempts. That doesn’t include a missed 48-yarder against Tennessee that got nullified by a penalty.

Narveson missed both his field-goal tries Sunday in a 31-29 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He bounced a 37-yard attempt off the right upright and sent a 49-yarder wide right as Green Bay fell behind 28-0 in the first half.
