Packers: First impressions from preseason victory over Steelers

The Packers took down the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 51 to 34 on Thursday night, in the second week of the 2018 preseason.

Here are some first impressions:

Oren Burks flashed a few times on kickoff coverage. Young players with great combinations of size and speed (for example, this guy) can often make an immediate impact on special teams, and Burks appears to be following that path.

Tramon Williams is excellent in off coverage.

Davante Adams got several snaps from the slot. Jordy Nelson played a fair amount in the slot in the past two seasons, and many perceived this as a move to prolong his career, following somewhat in the path of Larry Fitzgareld.
