Day 16 at Green Bay's camp packed in sloppy weather as the Packers pushed through a rain swept practice outside the Don Hut Center. A wave of injury designations hit the squad, with several veterans sitting and younger players getting looks at key roles. Green Bay added Dvonte Ali at defensive tackle and Jaylen Simpson at safety, while Garnett Hollis and Keith Randolph exited the roster. The practice, still valuable for reps, underscored the team’s depth concerns and the gradual ramping of returning players.

On the field, Jordan Love returned with a wrap on his left thumb and still worked seven-on-seven and red zone periods, while Malik Willis saw time at quarterback in seven-on-seven and 11-on-11 drills. Romeo Doubs and Matthew Golden-linked connections provided encouraging moments in the passing game, and Brandon McManis drilled all six field goals despite brutal conditions, earning the day’s game ball. Off field, the Packers stressed resilience and progress as they prepare for Detroit and Week 1.

Several injury notes loomed large: Kenny Clark, LVN, Aaron Banks and Jacob Monk were among those not practicing, while Xavier McKenna showed positive ramp-up signs. The ongoing health picture will shape decisions as the season opens, but the day nonetheless highlighted growth, new faces, and a team navigating through adversity with an eye toward a strong start.

In the latest 49ers update, Brock Purdy reflected on his evolving relationship with receiver Ricky Pearsall, emphasizing the importance of timing and communication in their second year together. Purdy acknowledged Pearsall's raw talent and his need to acclimate to the NFL's pace and system. During training camp, Pearsall has impressed, and his performance against a solid Broncos defense in joint practices will be a critical test for his growth. Meanwhile, the offensive line situation appears stable, with Ben Bartch securing the left guard position, and Spencer Burford backing Trent Williams at tackle.
