GREEN BAY, Wis. – “Control what you can control” is right out of Coachspeak 101.
Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur wishes all his players would be in attendance for the voluntary organized team activities. But that’s something he can’t control. As was the case last week, a number of key players were absent for the start of the second week of OTAs on Tuesday.
While the attendance sheet is out of LaFleur’s control, he seemed at least a little perturbed that so many players weren’t present. Under former coach Mike McCarthy, the Packers generally had full participation, or at least close to it, by the time OTAs were complete.
