Packers defense gains traction on Day 2 of Training Camp

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - While Day 1 of training camp was won by Aaron Rodgers and the offense, Day 2 was more of a mixed bag. In what is expected to be an uber-competitive camp, the defense more than held its own on Wednesday.

Yes, there were splash plays for rookie receiver Romeo Doubs, and Rodgers showed off his pinpoint accuracy. But that defense had serious push in the pass rush (Rashan Gary has looked dominant in camp) and the cornerbacks have stood out for their blanket coverage on the back end.

“(The offense) had a lot of lucky plays with the bobbled catches and all that kind of stuff, but I think the defense won the red zone and we did a good job in the run periods,” said defensive lineman Kenny Clark.
