The Green Bay Packers will be hosting its 23rd annual Family Night at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin on Saturday night. It is going to be a fun night for the fans and also the players. With a couple of weeks of camp under the Packers’ belt, the picture is getting more clear in who the starters will be for the 2024 season.
Preseason games will be right around the corner, but the Green Bay Packers will not be practicing on Friday because Family Night is on Saturday. There have been some standouts up to this point and there have been some disappointments at this point.
