The Green Bay Packers are welcoming the New York Jets to Lambeau Field for the preseason opener on Saturday night. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. local time. After over two weeks of practice, Matt LaFleur’s team is ready to face off against new competition in a live game environment.
Will starters play? Probably, based on LaFleur’s comments this week. He wants his veterans knocking off the rust and getting into game mode, but the weather on Saturday night — which could include heavy rain in Green Bay — might change his plans.
