The Green Bay Packers host the New Orleans Saints in NFL preseason action Friday, August 19. The game will be live streamed on DirecTV Stream (free trial) and fuboTV (free trial).
Earlier this week, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers expressed his displeasure with his young receivers’ performances. Rodgers, however, isn’t expected to play Friday. It is believed the Packers will get another extended look at Jordan Love, who completed 13-of-24 passes for 176 yards with two touchdowns but three interceptions in last week’s loss.
Meanwhile, the Saints are suffering from injures as their starting left tackle James Hurst and his backup Trevor Penning, one of the team’s first-round draft picks, left practice early Wednesday with injuries.
The preseason games between the Saints and Packers is 7 p.m. (8 p.m. ET) Saturday, August 19.
