Action constant in battle for No. 3 running back spot
Competition likely to continue for duration of preseason
GREEN BAY – Judging by the last few days of training camp, the battle for the Packers’ No. 3 running back spot could last awhile.
Last Thursday at New England, undrafted rookies Alonzo Harris and John Crockett each scored touchdowns, with Harris rambling 25 yards down the sideline and Crockett hauling in a 10-yard pass in the flat.
Then on Saturday in practice, Rajion Neal – who was quiet but still productive in the preseason opener, with four rushes for 15 yards plus two receptions – hauled in a deep pass over his shoulder from Matt Blanchard, showing off the hands that seemingly catch everything thrown his way.
