GREEN BAY — When the Green Bay Packers’ players return to Lambeau Field for the start of training camp at the end of next month — or so the NFL hopes — they will be returning to a vastly different environment than the one they were in back on Jan. 20, when they cleared out their lockers and packed up their belongings in the wake of their NFC Championship Game loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
In a memo sent to the league’s 32 teams, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell established detailed protocols for each club to follow as players return to facilities.
