The Green Bay Packers held their annual Family Night scrimmage on Friday night at Lambeau Field in front of 50,000 fans. The weather was close to perfect, but Matt LaFleur still ended the practice a little early after a few players, including Darnell Savage, suffered minor injuries.
Here are some of the highlights from the night:

Will this be a common sight in 2022? Aaron Rodgers gave Sammy Watkins a chance to make a play downfield and he took advantage, beating Eric Stokes to the ball.

Jordan Love was under intense pressure from rookie Devonte Wyatt, but he still found Toure wide open behind the coverage for a long touchdown during team periods. Toure made a lot of big plays down the field in college. He’s sneaky fast. Friday night was a big step in the right direction for the rookie receiver.
