The Green Bay Packers entertained 67,191 fans for 90 minutes Saturday night. It marked the Packers' 10th Annual Family Night practice before a near sold out Lambeau Field. It was the team's seventh practice of it's 2015 training camp.
 
Among the rookie players getting their first opportunity to perform in front of a near full house at "legendary Lambeau" was former UW-Whitewater quarterback Matt Blanchard. Matt signed with Green Bay back in April after reaching an injury settlement with the Carolina Panthers.

Blanchard operated No 4 on the team's depth chart last night.

Through the first week of training camp, Blanchard and 5th round draft pick Brett Hundley have alternated at No. 3 and No. 4 on the Packers' quarterback depth chart.
