It’s official — the first practices of 2021 are in the books for the Green Bay Packers.
Yes, those practices just covered the two days of rookie minicamp over the weekend, but it was still a meaningful step in a number of ways. First, the team got its first look at the 2021 draft picks and undrafted rookies; second, it’s a notable step back towards normalcy and a post-COVID-19 football world.
As expected, all of the team’s rookies attended over the weekend, and seven of them have already signed their rookie contracts. Only Eric Stokes and Amari Rodgers remain unsigned, but expect both to take care of that piece of business in fairly short order.
