5. Mysterious Packers Heading Into Training Camp: Justin Hollins

Do the Packers have something in Justin Hollins? They seem to think so. Hollins received some first-team reps during Organized Team Activities and minicamp. Rashan Gary is still recovering from his ACL surgery and Lukas Van Ness is learning the ropes as a rookie. That opens up some short-term opportunities for Hollins to prove himself.

4. Mysterious Packers Heading Into Training Camp: A.J. Dillon

A.J. Dillon is determined to make a comeback in the 2023 season and prove his worth to the Packers. After spending his rookie year on the sidelines in 2020, he earned a backup role in 2021 and displayed glimpses of his potential as a powerful, agile running back.

However, 2022 was a challenging year for Dillon as he failed to build upon his previous successes and fell short of expectations. Now, entering a crucial contract year, there is a lot at stake for him personally and financially. The pressure is on for Dillon to rediscover his form and deliver a standout performance.

With his unique combination of size and quickness, Dillon has the tools to be a force in the backfield. It will be fascinating to see how he responds to the challenge and whether he can recapture the promise he showed earlier in his career.
