LaFleur Brothers Face Off as Packers, Cardinals Hold Joint Training Camp Practice
- On Wednesday, Aug. 26, the Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals held a joint practice at Ray Nitschke Field, featuring a unique coaching matchup between Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur.
- Ahead of their preseason finale Friday at Lambeau Field, the teams scheduled this session to sharpen their rosters. The format allowed both coaching staffs to evaluate players in a controlled setting against live competition.
- Packers quarterback Jordan Love started effectively before the Cardinals' offense surged late in the practice. Both teams emphasized avoiding fights to prevent league-mandated $500,000 fines, after the NFL cracked down on teams that brawled previously.
- Regarding player health, LaFleur said it is "too early to tell" if James Conner will be ready for Week 1. Meanwhile, Packers tight end Tucker Kraft participated in contact drills following his ACL injury.
- Both teams must trim rosters to 53 players by Sunday before the regular season opener on Sept. 13. The joint session served as a final evaluation opportunity for players competing for remaining spots.
