Welcome to the 17th day of training camp for the Green Bay Packers. Matt LaFleur’s team is back in Green Bay for practice on Tuesday following a disappointing couple of days in Denver. On Thursday, the Packers will welcome the Baltimore Ravens to Green Bay for a joint practice and the final open practice of training camp.
So, what will Day 17 bring at Ray Nitschke Field?
Here’s everything to know from Tuesday, Aug. 20, the 17th training camp practice of 2024:

LaFleur is still deciding if starters will play against the Ravens in the preseason finale.
He thought his team played with energy but had too many “mental mistakes” against the Broncos.
Injury updates
Rookie linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (hip) will return and work individual periods on Tuesday. Running back MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) remains out. Offensive lineman Jordan Morgan might advance to 11-on-11 work on Thursday.
New injuries coming out of the weekend in Denver: Running back AJ Dillon (stinger), offensive tackle Andre Dillard (shoulder), tight end Tyler Davis (shoulder), defensive lineman Spencer Waege (concussion). Defensive end Preston Smith has an illness and isn’t practicing. Linebacker Ralen Goforth suffered a concussion vs. the Broncos and isn’t practicing.

Love to Doubs for a big play:
First deep ball of the day has great touch. Love to Doubs for 30+ down the left sideline over Stokes.

Anders Carlson started 2-for-2 on kicks. So did rookie Alex Hale. Greg Joseph missed from 43 yards out.
Carlson (41L, 45R) and Hale (43R, 45R) go 2 for 2.
Joseph missed from 43R and then made 41L #Packers

The Packers kicking competition continues to stink. Greg Joseph, who once looked like the clear front runner, has had a terrible week or so. He’s 1-for-4 to start Tuesday’s practice and now under 80 percent for camp.

Tuesday’s practice ends with a wacky play:
Practice ends with a wild play: Quay Walker tips a Love pass near the goal line, and it falls right in Elgton Jenkins’ hands. O-line then tried to push Jenkins into the end zone. pic.twitter.com/C7E63P4MUX
