The Green Bay Packers see value in the potential “bonding experience” of going on the road for a joint practice against the Cincinnati Bengals before the team’s preseason opener in August.
The current plan is for the Packers to practice in Green Bay on Tuesday, Aug. 8, fly to Cincinnati later than night, participate in the joint practice against the Bengals on Wednesday, Aug. 9, hold a walk-through practice on Thursday, Aug. 10 and then play the preseason opener on Friday, Aug. 11.
“It changes up the monotony of (training) camp, I’d say,” coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday.
