Preseason games required to help determine Packers depth roster spots
Preseason games will play a big factor in the Green Bay Packers determining roster spots at important depth spots this summer, including positional battles at receiver, outside linebacker, cornerback and safety.
Coach Matt LaFleur said the live game reps often provide opportunities for players to make an impression and get an advantage over others competing at respective positions.
“Yeah, I think we have to get into some of those preseason games, and really give it a chance to sort itself out,” LaFleur said Tuesday. “A lot of times you see guys start to separate themselves from the group.”
