Barclay closing in on right tackle job

August 21, 2013 By Bill Scott

It would appear Don Barclay’s experiment at center is over, for now.  When Green

Bay Packers training camp started, Barclay was expected to compete at both tackle and center.

Then T.J. Lang missed some practice time and Barclay was working at right guard.  But with Lang back, Barclay is once again battling Marshall Newhouse for the right tackle job.  Barclay won’t accept the fact that he’s moved into the driver’s seat in the battle and it’s his to lose.  With two preseason games left, he believes anything can happen.

Barclay didn’t mind getting reps at the center position and someday he wouldn’t mind taking another run at that spot.  But for now, his opportunity comes at right tackle, so that’s where is focus is. [Read more…]

he maintains a slight edge for the starting job as the regular season approaches.

But Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy said no job has been won and Barclay will continue to battle for that job with Marshall Newhouse.

A few players returned to practice this week.  Rookie Datone Jones was back to work, as was defensive back Casey Hayward (hamstring) and tight end Andrew Quarless (quad strain).

Quarterbacks

Graham Harrell is still the leader in the race for backup quarterback, but Packers coach Mike McCarthy said the urgency has picked up with the arrival of Vince Young.

B.J. Coleman had the best performance of the backups last week.  He engineered the only touchdown drive of the preseason.

suffered a knee injury in Saturday nights Family Night scrimmage.

The Packers are reportedly concerned the injury could be a torn ligament and would turn out to be season ending.

Bulaga had just moved to left tackle this offseason and played 30-snaps in Saturday night’s scrimmage.

The Packers have a practice in shells this afternoon (closed to the public).  Mike McCarthy will address the media after that workout. [Read more…]

May 22, 2013 By Bill Scott

The Green Bay Packers are using their spring OTA workouts as a chance to get their

Bryan Bulaga

reconfigured offensive line settled into their new roles.

Every player on the offensive line is shifting to a new spot, except center Evan Dietrich-Smith.

The change came about four weeks ago, but it was put into lace this week during team OTA workouts.

Mike McCarthy said Bryan Bulaga is his best tackle and he wants to shift him to the left side.  Bulaga, along with guard Josh Sitton, are making the move from right to left to help protect Aaron Rodgers blind side. [Read more…]

Packers ready their run game for the Chicago Bears

September 13, 2012 By admin

Josh Sitton looks to create opportunities on the ground for Cedric Benson this Thursday

Thursday presents an opportunity for the Green Bay Packers to avenge last week’s loss by taking on a fierce rival in the Chicago Bears.  With such a short week to prepare, major fixes will not be a concern for the team according to center Jeff Saturday.  He says the Packers need to execute better in order to get a win tonight.

One major execution the Packers must improve on is their running game.  Anyone who saw week one’s game can agree that the Packers need to do a better job running the ball. [Read more…]

Lang prepares to move outside if necessary

September 5, 2012 By Bill Scott

For the first time in his NFL career, Green Bay Packers offensive lineman T.J. Lang entered

TJ Lang

training camp with his spot at left guard locked up.  At the time, Lang didn’t figure he’d have to worry about playing other positions on the offensive line, which is something he did in the first few seasons in Green Bay.

The Packers however have struggled to find an adequate backup at the tackle spots, especially behind starter Marshall Newhouse on the left side.  That means Lang will have to be on standby, just in case something were to happen to Newhouse or RT Bryan Bulaga.

He’s been taking some practice reps at tackle, just to stay sharp.

AUDIO: TJ Lang says he’s taking some reps at tackle :18

Lang said he’s definitely much more ready to move out if he has to, compared to a couple of years ago. [Read more…]

Packers offensive line depth to be tested

August 6, 2012 By Bill Scott

Marshall Newhouse and teammate Greg Jennings suffered concussions in

Herb Taylor

Friday’s Family Night Scrimmage in Green Bay.  There’s plenty of depth at wide receiver behind Jennings, but if the Packers have to play without Newhouse at left tackle, their depth will be tested.

Derek Sherrod is listed second on the depth chart at left tackle, but he’s not ready to go yet and coach Mike McCarthy ruled him out of this Thursday’s preseason opener at San Diego. [Read more…]

Still no word on LT Marshall Newhouse

August 5, 2012 By Bill Scott

With the Green Bay Packers returning to the practice field tonight (7pm), it’s still uncertain whether or not LT Marshall Newhouse will

Derek Sherrod

be with them.

Newhouse left Friday night’s Family Night scrimmage with an undisclosed injury and he wasn’t in the locker room during the noon hour when reporters had access to players.  Coach Mike McCarthy won’t be addressing the media until after tonight’s practice.

While the Packers have their five starters set on the offensive line, an injury could be a big issue for the Packers.

Derek Sherrod is listed as the Packers No. 2 left tackle, but he remains on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list as he continues his recovery from a broken leg suffered last December.  Coach Mike McCarthy last week didn’t sound to optimistic about a quick return for Sherrod. 

That leaves Herb Taylor and Andrew Datko as their top backups at left tackle for now.  But if this situation came up in the regular season, there’s a decent chance the Packers would move TJ Lang to left tackle and bring Evan Dietrich-Smith off the bench and into the left guard spot.  Dietrich-Smith is currently the backup at center.
