Highlights from Packers Family Night: Omar Brown steals the show

The Green Bay Packers held their annual “Family Night” practice inside Lambeau Field on Saturday night. The announced attendance was just under 60,000, and Matt LaFleur’s team worked for just over two hours on the field before a fireworks and laser show wrapped up the event.

The defense mostly dominated the team periods, and an unheralded safety made the most plays.

Here are the top highlights from Family Night:

Omar Brown steals the show

The second-year safety snagged three interceptions, giving him a team-high five picks during training camp. One was thrown directly to him during a red-zone period, and another came off a deflection, but Brown also made an impressive read and finish on a throw from rookie Taylor Elgersma to finish off the Family Night hat trick. Matt LaFleur stated the obvious: “He is making plays.”

Kalen King gets a pick

Omar Brown wasn’t the only one at the interception party. Kalen King jumped a throw from Malik Willis and made the pick in front of receiver Julian Hicks for the second-team defense.

Sack for LVN vs. Morgan

In a battle of first-round picks, Lukas Van Ness got the best of Jordan Morgan at left tackle.

Jordan Love’s night

Jordan Love had a mostly quiet night overall, including a couple of deep misses and an interception thrown to Carrington Valentine. Justis Mosqueda of Acme Packing Company put together a reel of Love’s throws on Saturday night:

McManus stays red hot

Veteran kicker Brandon McManus made all eight of his kicks during team periods, including three kicks over 50 yards. He is now 36-for-37 to start training camp.
