After a pair of joint practices earlier on Wednesday and Thursday, the Green Bay Packers will conclude the week with their preseason matchup with the New England Patriots.
This has been an important week for the Packers in terms of evaluating their roster. Although nothing will be fully determined after this week, the last several days will carry a lot of weight in those final roster and playing time decisions that will be made in a few weeks.
“This is going to be a big week for our guys,” said coach Matt LaFleur, “in terms of this just being the most exhausting week of the preseason for these guys.
