Overview
- Drew Allar produced some of the day’s biggest throws, including a late 15‑yard touchdown, while also throwing a tipped interception in Wednesday’s padless practice, showing both upside and areas that need repair.
- Allar credited head coach Mike McCarthy’s emphasis on footwork, processing and purposeful reps for tangible improvements in his mechanics and decision-making during drills.
- Aaron Rodgers is being placed on a short pitch count and some veterans such as Broderick Jones are being eased in, which has limited live reps for the first‑team offense this week.
- With Jalen Ramsey and Joey Porter Jr. on the PUP list, Asante Samuel Jr. and other young defensive backs received extra snaps and stood out, and pass rushers T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig were moved around multiple alignments.
- Pads will be added next week and the first preseason game is Aug. 13, which will provide more decisive evaluation of the QB depth chart and roster choices that now remain unsettled.
