In just over five weeks, the Green Bay Packers will officially open their season when they travel to face the Chicago Bears on September 13.
Considering how many long, long weeks have passed since the Packers last played a snap on January 18, five weeks is no time at all. However, those weeks will be packed with movement and developments, from when Green Bay opens the preseason on August 13 to when the team must cut its roster down to 75 players by 4:00 p.m. ET on September 1.
In the coming weeks, we'll get a better sense for how the Packers' new additions are fitting in with their veteran teammates, who is surging ahead in position battles, which undrafted rookies have a legitimate shot at making the final roster and how the offense and defense are looking ahead of the season.
