Packers give RT Bryan Bulaga veteran rest day
By: Zach Kruse | 21 hours ago
Coach Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers gave veteran right tackle Bryan Bulaga a rest day during Saturday’s training camp practice.

Bulaga, who has an extensive injury history and 10 years of NFL experience, was among nine players to miss practice, the third of the Packers’ training camp....

Smart....we need to do more of this...throughout the season

Let's not do more of this. Maybe Bulaga is always injured because of dumb shit like this. I'd be fucking embarrassed if I needed a rest day on day 2 of camp. He had been through 1 practice.

Prett sure Bulaga already knows what he is going to be doing come September.

Resting him in practice every so often is mot going to hinder him.

He's not a rookie, he won't fall behind.

Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if Bulaga is traded or released before TC is over.

No Ted Thompson draftee is safe.

Yes, as long as he mentally knows the new scheme and the difference in run blocking and calls Bulaga should be ready to go... and this helps prepare his backups.

Gute has only shipped guys out when there was potential big talent that needs to be developed behind a guy, so far, that doesn't seem to be the case at OT, at all! They're gonna need to draft an OT soon.

The new administration needs to keep guys healthy.

I wonder how the strength and conditioning coaches in Cincinnati are going to keep their jobs after Green tore ankle ligaments and will be out 6-8 weeks?

It's obviously their fault.

Heads should roll!

There is very little difference in strength and conditioning from team to team!

There were 384 players that ended on IR last year.
That is an avereage of 12 per team.

The Bears had the least with 5.
The Cardinals had the most at 20.
The Packers had 15.
Only 3 of those 15 were due to core muscle injuries.

This is the NFL, it's still a very tough game.
Players are going to get injured.

Resting veterans can only help.

Pretty sure nobody got the full pad practice off.

Pretty sure the hate geared towards the GB training staff is due to the absurd amount of hammy and groin pulls this team has dealt with year after year for the past decade. Those are injuries that can be impacted by proper training. No one is blaming the training staff for torn ACLs and broken collar bones.

Stop blaming the coaches.

I've read about almost every year different things The Packers try.

Somebody comes up with a hammy and muscle pull preventive , that somebody will be one rich dude!

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
