What should fans expect out of the defense?”Fast, physical, sharp,” is how Franklin described the defensive approach in 2026. “We’re going to take that ball away, we’re going to set the tempo for the team.”He also said he’s looking forward to playing alongside third-year pro Edgerrin Cooper in the middle of the field.10:00 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateJordan Love reacts after Packers Family Night, goal is to win the NFC NorthChristopher KuhagenHere’s what Jordan Love had to say after Family Night in his on-field interview with John Kuhn:On his seventh training camp and fourth as the starter:”Cmp is camp. It never gets old. My body feels good. Grinding throughout training camp.”But he said the team is “ready to play someone else.”That will begin next Thursday when the Packers play their first preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and old friends, Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy.When asked about his goals, the 27-year-old Love, who is the longest-tenured player on the team, said it’s to be the best QB he can be.And as a team it’s “getting back to winning the NFC North.”While the Packers have made the playoffs in each of the last three years, the Packers haven’t won the NFC North since the 2021 season. Every other NFC North team has won the division more recently than the Packers. The Minnesota Vikings won the NFC North in 2022, the Detroit Lions in 2023 and 2024 and the Chicago Bears last season.9:51 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updatePackers Family Night endsChristopher KuhagenFamily Night wraps up shortly before 9:45 p.m. At over two hours, that was by far the longest training camp practice.Fans got their money’s worth and the night isn’t over yet.It’s time for some fireworks to close out the event.9:40 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updatePackers have first injury during live tackling portion of Family NightTom SilversteinHead coach Matt LaFleur saved a live tackling period for the end of practice and it included the first injury of the night.Cornerback Marlon Jones, an undrafted rookie, appeared to get hit on the side of the knee and needed help getting to the sideline.The tackling was limited to mostly younger players and non-starters.9:36 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updatePenalty pushes kicker Trey Smack back but he’s good againRyan WoodTrey Smack is good from 42 yards, but there’s a penalty.

He also spent time as a kickoff returnee.8:31 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateJonathan Gannon’s defense has versatility in playbook with players at line of scrimmageTom SilversteinA look that defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon uses from time to time is to line three defensive linemen across the formation and then use just one outside linebacker, usually Lukas Van Ness.It gives him the ability to add an extra defensive back and then bring inside linebacker Edgerrin Cooper down as a fifth defender on the line of scrimmage if needed.It’s a way to play nickel defense, but still have five defenders on the line of scrimmage to play the run.Gannon replaced Jeff Hafley as defensive coordinator. Hafley spent two years leading the Packers defense before taking the Miami Dolphins’ head coaching job.8:26 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateTrey Smack makes 38-yard field goalRyan Wood and Christopher KuhagenTrey Smack splits the uprights from 38 yards on his first kick inside Lambeau Field, unless you count his warmup XP, which he also made.For your records, officials were allowed to signal whether or not the kick was good underneath the goal posts.Head coach Matt LaFleur said a few days ago that during training camp he has stopped having officials give a signal on whether his kicks are good so reporters don’t definitely know the results.“At the end of the day, you’re talking about practice situations,” LaFleur said of evaluating Smack. “I think the real tests will come in those preseason games, and then obviously into the regular season.”Smack, selected by the Packers in the sixth round of the draft this spring, has struggled kicking early in training camp.Smack is the only kicker in training camp after the team released the two kickers on the team’s roster last season in Brandon McManus and Lucas Havrisik.8:20 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateBrenton Cox Jr., Jonathan Ford shine in pass rush; Offensive lineman Anthony Belton mixed resultsTom SilversteinIn one-on-one pass rush, end Brenton Cox Jr. was the star. He was red hot, bull-rushing tackle Darian Kinnard twice, once for what would have been a sure sack. Then he came back and destroyed tackle Travis Glover with a quick move around the corner.Cox has one of the better pass-rush skill sets and it isn’t surprising he did well.Tackle Anthony Belton was up and down. He held up against rookie Dani-Dennis-Sutton on one rep and then lost badly to Barryn Sorrell, whose pass rush seems to get better with time. Glover struggled, losing to Cox Jr. and linebacker Edgerrin Cooper.The pass rush of the day came from Jonathan Ford, who pancaked rookie guard Dylan Barrett on his way to the quarterback. One offensive lineman worth watching is guard Dillon Wade, a rookie out of Auburn. At 6-3, 216 pounds, he’s not the biggest guy, but he absorbs power well. Twice he took on power rushes and stymied both Anthony Campbell and Jaden Crumedy.8:17 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateMatthew Golden with a long touchdownRyan Wood and Christopher KuhagenMatthew Golden beats Javon Bullard down the right sideline for a 52-yard touchdown from Jordan Love, and Lambeau Field crowd erupts.Golden flings the football high in air to celebrate in end zoneFans will hope they see a lot of Love-Golden connections and touchdowns in 2026.

Then the 23-year-old got behind him on a deep go and caught Jordan Love’s pass over the shoulder.With Romeo Doubs gone, Golden is expected to be used much more in the offense then he was as a rookie. The 2025 first-round pick didn’t have his first touchdown until the team’s wild-card playoff game at Chicago.7:56 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updatePackers kickoff coverage for Family NightTom SilversteinHere is the starting kickoff coverage unit early on in the practice:From left to right, it’s Brandon Cisse, Ty’Ron Hopper, Javon Bullard, Arron Mosby, Evan Williams, Nick Niemann, Isaiah McDuffie, Bo Melton, Mark Perry and Benjamin St.-Juste.7:52 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateJordan Love with his daughter, Rayna, on Family NightRyan Wood and Christopher KuhagenHere come the Packers with their families on Packers Family Night.And quarterback Jordan Love came with daughter, Rayna, who was born earlier during the offseason.It’s Love’s first child with wife, Ronika.The 27-year-old QB gave baby Rayna a kiss as they made their way onto the field.7:47 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updatePackers injury reportPete DoughertyHere is the Packers injury report for Family Night on Aug. 7:PUPEDGE Micah Parsons (knee)LS Matt Orzech (calf)TE Luke Musgrave (neck)DL Jordon Riley (Achilles)DL Javon Hargrave (knee)NFIRB Chris Brooks (knee).

Kraft, who was a yards after contact star, posted a career-high seven catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers’ 35-25 win over the Steelers before a national audience on “Sunday Night Football” on Oct. 26.It was his second 100-plus yard receiving game of the season.Kraft expects to be back to full strength for the season opener on Sept. 13.7:37 pm CT August 7, 2026Share this updateMicah Parsons at Packers Family NightChristopher KuhagenMicah Parsons won’t be participating in Packers Family Night.But the All-Pro edge rusher is in attendance inside Lambeau Field and appears to be enjoying himself.

He’ll likely eye a return in mid October.Parsons became a father for the third time a couple weeks after the injury in late 2025.
