GREEN BAY — Like just about everything else in sports amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Brian Gutekunst’s third end-of-camp roster cutdown as Green Bay Packers general manager will be unlike any other.
With a truncated training camp and zero preseason games to use to evaluate his own guys — not to mention scour other NFL rosters for potential trade acquisitions or waiver-wire claims — Gutekunst, coach Matt LaFleur and the scouting and coaching staffs will have less information to go on than any time in the modern football era.
“I think you’re running on faith a little bit,” Gutekunst admitted during a Zoom video call with reporters Saturday afternoon, following the team’s 11th practice of training camp.
