"Sammy Watkins is going to be entering the regular season on the right foot after finishing out the last few weeks of training camp on a high note.

β€œI’ll tell you what: Every since the Saints practice, the first one, Sammy has been a different player,” said Rodgers. β€œHe’s been super reliable. Every practice he’s made a bunch of plays. Today, made a bunch of plays again.”

Couple notes on Kenny Clark from paul bretl

"K. Clark took 232 snaps lined up as the 5-tech, which comes outside by the offensive tackle.

This was the most snaps from this alignment β€” and by a decent margin β€” from Clark over his career. His previous high was 107 snaps in 2020. During his first five seasons combined, Clark had just 227 total snaps as the 5-tech.

He also had the fewest snaps of his career lined up in the A-gap β€” or by the center β€” with only 130. For added context, from 2017 through 2019, Clark averaged about 320 snaps per year from the A-gap during that span.

As opposed to lining up inside where double-teams often occur, Clark gets more one-on-one opportunities when out on the edge. So it’s not a coincidence that with more snaps as the 5-tech, Clark had his most productive year in terms of getting after the quarterback with 64 pressures.



Additions of Jarran Reed, TJ Slaton and Jonathan Ford - all super stout guys who can handle a double suggests that...

DC Barry is taking some of the grunt work away from Clark and turning him loose from different spots on the DL.
