GREEN BAY — Like just about everything else in sports amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Brian Gutekunst’s third end-of-camp roster cutdown as Green Bay Packers general manager will be unlike any other.
With a truncated training camp and zero preseason games to use to evaluate his own guys — not to mention scour other NFL rosters for potential trade acquisitions or waiver-wire claims — Gutekunst, head coach Matt LaFleur and the scouting and coaching staffs will have less information to go on than any time in the modern football era.
“I think you’re running on faith a little bit,” Gutekunst admitted during a Zoom video call with reporters Saturday afternoon, following the team’s 11th practice of training camp.
