Packers rookies will have to wait a little longer for training camp debut as reporting date on hold

GREEN BAY — As NFL owners and the NFL Players Association work toward an accord on what training camps will look like — and how many preseason games, if any, each team will play — the members of the Green Bay Packers’ 2020 rookie class will have to continue to bide their time until they can get on the field for their first practices as professionals.

With the COVID-19 pandemic having wiped out the NFL’s usual organized team activity practices and minicamps, forcing all of the offseason program to be held in the virtual realm, the Packers’ nine rookie draft picks and 14 undrafted free agents have yet to take a single snap of on-field work.
