GREEN BAY, Wis. – His wedding is on the horizon, and he’s in a contract year. But neither is the reason Green Bay Packers All-Pro left guard Josh Sitton undertook an Eddie Lacy-style approach – minus the P90X – to the offseason.
To hear his coach tell it, and with apologies to Allen Iverson, Sitton’s decision to drop 20 pounds this offseason was all about practice.
“Usually I don’t share what a player says to me, but this is really impressive: When he came back at that weight, his response to me was, ‘I need to practice more,’” Packers offensive line coach James Campen said.
