GREEN BAY, Wis. -- T.J. Lang wasted no time welcoming his newest Green Bay Packers teammate -- and letting the rookie know how things work in the Packers’ offensive-line meeting room.
Minutes after the Packers took Indiana offensive tackle Jason Spriggs in the second round (No. 48 overall) of the NFL draft Friday evening, Lang placed his order for future meetings.
Welcome Spriggs! I chew skoal wintergreen and like my coffee 2 creams, 2 sugars.

Lang, who joined the Packers as a fourth-round pick in 2009 and has been a starter since 2011, was just letting Spriggs know about the offensive-line tradition of having rookies deliver beverages, and chewing tobacco, to the veterans and offensive-line coach James Campen each week.
