Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur was looking for a fight-free joint practice against the Denver Broncos on Friday. Mostly, he got his wish.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur got his wish for a fight-free joint practice at the Denver Broncos on Friday. But not before a couple reality checks.
During a special-teams period, Packers long snapper Matt Orzech and Broncos defensive back Devon Key got into a pushing match. Moments later, the composure that LaFleur was looking for seemingly was missing as Orzech’s snap sailed over the head of 6-foot-5 punter Daniel Whelan and threw the end zone.
Largely, though, LaFleur and his counterpart, Broncos coach Sean Payton, got their wish with a fight-free practice, as the pushing and shoving was limited to, well, pushing and shoving.
