Young receivers making their case in Packers training camp (AUDIO)

Max McCaffrey works on ball drills in training camp

Every single day in Green Bay Packers training camp, a young receiver stands out, trying to make the regular season 53-man roster, or at the very least, the team’s practice squad.

Last year, undrafted rookie Geronimo Allison out of Illinois, was that player.  Allison made the teams practice squad and eventually signed to the 53-man roster in week eight.

In this training camp, the list of young and promising receivers is long.  DeAngelo Yancey, Michael Clark, Malachi DuPre, Montay Crockett and Max McCaffrey are all looking to win spots somewhere along the line, battling incumbents like Trevor Davis and Jeff Janis.

McCaffrey spent time on the Packers practice squad last season and was actually signed to the active roster for the playoff loss at Atlanta.  His brother Christian was a first round draft pick by Carolina and his father Ed played for 13 years with the Giants, 49ers and Denver Broncos.

After a sluggish start for the offense, Brett Hundley hit wide receiver Jeff Janis for a 20-yard touchdown and the Green Bay Packers went on to knock off the Philadelphia Eagles 24-9 at Lambeau Field on Thursday.

The score was part of 17 unanswered points in the second quarter.  Trevor Davis also took one of his two punt returns back 68 yards for a touchdown, which likely put him in the driver’s seat for the punt return job this season.

A sprained ankle wiped out Hundley’s preseason a year ago, so his start against the Eagles was his first significant playing time since his rookie season two years ago.

Hundley finished 8 of 15 for 90 yards with a touchdown and an interception.  Mason Crosby also booted a 39-yard field goal to send the Packers into the locker room at halftime with a 17-6 lead.

Third-string quarterback Joe Callahan entered in the third quarter and completed 10 of 16 passes for 103 yards.  Rookie Taysom Hill came on late and threw a seven-yard touchdown pass to Michael Clark with nine seconds left to play. [Read more…]
