First practice for new RB
New RB Darrin Hall, claimed off waivers from the Bengals, is practicing for the first time. The Packers added two backs — Hall and Corey Grant (Jaguars) since the start of camp. Said GM Brian Gutekunst this morning: "We had some… https://t.co/GKF7POjcHX pic.twitter.com/aG5jfyr5QE

Versatile edge rushers
On right, that’s OLBs Za’Darius Smith & Rashan Gary spending some time with the D-line in drills at #PackersCamp, another indication they will be lining up on the interior in certain packages. pic.twitter.com/CVpjeFdKV7

Speaking of Za’Darius…
Oh man, Za’Darius Smith just blew by David Bakhtiari in 1-on-1s with an inside move. Bakhtiari had a false start the snap prior. Smith winning today after Bak won the other day. Packers’ best pass rusher and best O-lineman fairly even to start camp.

It's always shocking to see David Bakhtiari lose a 1-on-1 rep so when Za'Darius Smith beat him twice in a row it's an eye-opener. Bakhtiari won the two head-to-head reps the last practice. This is going to be a great battle all camp. https://t.co/XLqJ3Www1H

Bakhtiari didn’t even touch Z Smith on second rep. You do not see that happen to Bakhtiari in one-on-ones ever. https://t.co/TmF0aUr8yP

Haven’t seen this yet in camp: Josh Jones back with Adrian Amos as deep safety, Raven Greene in the box as hybrid LB. Jones and Greene had been flipped.

Hollman continues to get reps with the first string defense.

Tonyan making plays
Nice play by Robert Tonyan, again repping with the 1s, beating Kevin King on a crossing route over the middle and catching a pass from Aaron Rodgers. Good way to get the QB’s attention.

J’Mon standing out Tuesday
Nice job coming back to the ball by J’Mon Moore on a deep dig vs pressure. Rodgers had to trust the WR would read it like he did, and Moore delivered. Solid practice so far from the second year wide out.

Defense wins final team period
Looked like Matt LaFleur pulled the No. 1 offense after one play in the final team period because of a turnover. Jaire Alexander force fumble after Davante Adams caught a slant. Blake Martinez recovered it. We'll see what LaFleur says about that after… https://t.co/1ygyqzHoTp

Practice No. 5 complete
Practice No. 5 ends with a lot of hoot and hollering from the defense. One hour, 50 minutes #Packers pic.twitter.com/TpSxgMzLFi
