Keep track of all the action from Saturday’s preseason opener between the Green Bay Packers and Cleveland Browns. Jordan Love will start for the Packers while Jameis Winston will attack Jeff Hafley’s defense.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers are kicking off the preseason at the Cleveland Browns on Saturday. How will Jordan Love do in his preseason debut? How will Sean Clifford and Michael Pratt perform? Will Jeff Hafley’s defense have a strong start?Green Bay’s defense has been excellent throughout training camp. Jeff Hafley’s defense won’t face a big-time test on Saturday, though.
The Browns’ will-not-dress list is a mile long and includes quarterback Deshaun Watson, receivers Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore, running back Nick Chubb and offensive linemen Jedrick Wills, Joel Bitonio and Jack Conklin.For many players, the preseason is about earning a spot on the roster or carving out his niche on the team. Not for Jordan Love, obviously.
“I’m excited just to be able to get the feel of the season getting started,” he said this week. “So, get out there, see how long we’re out there. Any time you get to be on the field, I think it’s a good opportunity to work on things, get better, things like that.” Not that Browns defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz is going to throw all of his extensive blitz package at Love, but he will present some new challenges after throwing at Jeff Hafley’s defense since May.
“I think that’s going to be very helpful because we’ve been seeing our defense and they do a lot of different stuff,” Love said. “But to be able to see different looks, different guys out there, different disguises as much as we can see before the season is going to make us better. As many banked reps as we can get before the season starts is going to help us.”“Going down and scoring quickly, I think that would be nice,” he said.
