GREEN BAY – Ty Montgomery couldn’t ask for a better tutor this spring as he polishes up his pass-protection skills.
Former Packers running back Brandon Jackson has spent a chunk of the offseason in Green Bay as a coaching intern, and he was seen working one-on-one with Montgomery in pass-blocking drills in Tuesday’s first minicamp practice.
Jackson, a second-round draft pick in 2007, made a name for himself in Green Bay’s offense as a third-down back and effective pass protector. He came into the NFL very raw in that area and developed it into a strength, and now he’s been passing along his tools and tips to Montgomery.
