Packers star opens up on ‘different’ pre-season training regime
Here’s what the two-time NFL MVP said about this year’s ‘unusual’ preseason training schedule.
He said, “I think the way we did the schedule this year with the lead-in time. The first couple of weeks felt kind of like an early offseason schedule.
“I told a friend of mine this is the first training camp in the last 16, the first time ever, that my arm hasn’t hurt at one point during training camp.

“The reason for that is a lot of times you might not throw the last week or last two weeks or maybe throw limited during the break in the offseason and day one you come in, and they want you to throw 150-200 balls in practice.
“This was a great lead-in, not just for my arm, also our other guys with skilled abilities. I think it was just kind of our wind, our football shape, weightlifting. You could lift harder when you’re not practicing as hard.
“I thought the schedule was beautiful in order to kind of get yourself into a really good spot in training camp,” Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee show last week.
