Packers lean on veterans to lead during OTAs

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - It’s a fact of life in the NFL. Every year there will be new players, new faces in the locker room. Whether that’s by the Draft or by free agency, change and how you adapt to it is a big part of long term success.

That’s why the offseason program is important for those new editions, and especially the rookies trying to get their feet wet. The Green Bay Packers no different.

This year there is a new crop of 11 rookies, covering different units and position groups. On defense it’s a pair of first rounders learning their way, and the secret to success is as simples as following the leader.
