Here’s everything you need to know about the Green Bay Packers’ joint practice at the Denver Broncos on Friday, including Jordan Love’s day, the player and player of the day, schoolyard dust-ups, highlights and more.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – The Green Bay Packers and Denver Broncos held a joint practice on Friday. Jordan Love, no different than in last year’s regular season, struggled to make plays against Denver’s defense.
“I tell Jordan all the time, ‘When in doubt, you know where to go.’ I’ve definitely been enjoying it,” Jacobs said. “Caught a crazy little catch on the sideline in the red zone today, just trying to build on that.”After hitting Luke Musgrave for a touchdown in the red-zone drill, Love struggled in the 2-minute offense, going 1-for-4 for 1 yard on a pass to Jacobs.
The numbers aren’t so important, though, as Love said part of practice is “push the limit” offensively. It turns out it was unnecessary, according to Love, who thought he was hit by a teammate, right tackle Zach Tom, and not Bonitto.. “I believe, I was going to throw and Zach Tom got pushed and hit my shoulder. I don’t think it was anything with the D-line or anything like that. Just friendly fire.”
- Running back Josh Jacobs was heavily involved in the passing game and got a pass from Love along the sidelines when he escaped a jam at the line of scrimmage. Making the catch a second earlier would have sprung Jacobs to the end zone. - Backup quarterback Sean Clifford didn’t fare any better than Love in the 2-minute offense. He nearly had a pass picked off and then was intercepted by cornerback Reese Taylor. Before the 2-minute drill, Clifford had a nice completion on his first attempt that was wiped out with an illegal motion call.
