After four practices in shells, this was the Packers’ second practice in pads.

WALKER’S JOB TO LOSE?: To start camp, the Packers have moved players around the offensive line. Nonetheless, they haven’t made any changes at left tackle, where Rasheed Walker has received all of the playing time for the top offense.
Walker remarked, “I’m just doing what I’m supposed to.” That’s all there is to it. All I have to do is continue doing my duties, treating my work seriously, and being dependable.
Walker, a seventh-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft, and Yosh Nijman split time at left tackle during the previous season following David Bakhtiari’s season-ending injury in Week 1. Walker beat Nijman to the position by the conclusion of the year.
In 851 snaps last season, Walker committed nine penalties and gave up six sacks. However, he also developed into the role and didn’t give up a sack in either of Green Bay’s postseason encounters.
Using their first-round selection, the Packers selected Jordan Morgan, an Arizona left tackle who had made it clear he wanted to stick at that position in the NFL. But as of now, Walker plays left tackle and Morgan plays right guard for Green Bay.

That implies that Morgan or Sean Rhyan, a third-year player, will probably start at right guard.
Rhyan was benched for the first two months of the previous campaign. However, starting in Week 9, Rhyan played 183 snaps at right guard without giving up a sack or a penalty.
League statistics show that the Packers gained 0.78 extra yards per rush attempt when Rhyan was on the field as opposed to when he wasn’t.
Indeed, dude. Summertime is busy, Rhyan remarked. “I simply need to go out there, give it my all, work hard, improve every day, and let the chips fall where they may.”
SEVENTH HEAVEN: The Packers have enjoyed considerable success over the past 25 years with seventh round draft selections, ranging from Donald Driver to Mark Tauscher to Rasheed Walker and Carrington Valentine. Is seventh-round pick Kalen King, a rookie, the next to step up?
Sunday was maybe King’s strongest camp day yet, capped off by what may have been a pick-six interception of Jordan Love. Christian Watson was thrown off guard by Love, and King seized the opportunity.
King also thwarted a wide receiver Jalen Wayne’s pass.
King has been preparing to open camp from both the slot and the boundary.
Regarding looking for ways to contribute, King said, “really just trusting myself, taking the coaching, taking tidbits from the vets that are in the room, the guys who have already been there, done that, guys with experience.” “Just observing those guys, taking notes from them, and applying what I learn to myself.”
