Most years, we're talking about the rookie wall and how grueling it is mentally and physically for the rookies to play a full college season, pro day/combine prep, draft, OTAs, training camp, and a full NFL season. Now without an offseason, we're talking about the rookies being disadvantaged and behind the learning curve. Rookies can't catch a break.
It's a tough transition no matter how you slice it.

With all the Don Hutson topics and records discussion, did anyone else notice he led the NFL in interceptions in 1940, too?
His 30 career interceptions rank tied for ninth in team history with Tramon Williams.

How will the Packers make up revenue with no fans at Lambeau?
They won't. There isn't a way to compensate fully for whatever revenue will be lost in 2020 due to limited or no ticket sales. Mark Murphy has expressed the organization is on solid financial ground to manage a significant one-year shortfall.
Jason from Vernon Hills, IL
With stadiums either empty or reduced with fans, do you think that NFL teams and especially the Packers can still play well? Will they still be motivated to play in empty stadiums?
It'll be different and it'll be strange, just as we've seen in baseball. But these guys are professional athletes. This is what they do.
Andrew from Green Bay, WI
Will it be harder for coaches to pick the 53-man roster with no preseason games?
The GM actually has final say over the roster, taking input from scouts, personnel execs and coaches. What happens in practice carries a lot of weight, and the preseason games become the validation for (or extension of) what's occurred in practice. Without that validation for younger, unproven players, it'll be interesting to see if they lean toward experience over youth in some of the final roster decisions.
Ron from Cherry Valley, IL
With the preseason games cancelled, practices closed and the practice squad expanded, it would seem to me this may be the easiest year to hide some rookies on the practice squad?
That's what I'm thinking. With no preseason film for other teams to review, there may be fewer waiver claims and less poaching of players, allowing teams to hang onto more of their own developmental prospects on the practice squad.
