Head Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed during his pre-practice news conference that the current plan calls for Love and most starters to play against the Browns.

LaFleur said he and the coaches reviewed previous seasons when Green Bay had its starters play in the preseason compared to when guys sat out and felt playing helped players prepare for the start of the regular season.
"I thought it was beneficial for us early on, especially Week 1, just to kind of knock some of the rust off," LaFleur said. "There was a lot of value of going through, getting your mind right to get ready to play a football game. Obviously, we're going to be smart with those guys. The last thing we want to do is put guys at risk. … We'll be smart with him."

I know I said I was against them playing in the preseason but if you’re going to do it, do it early. Knock off the rust and if you do take any dings you got 3 weeks to get right.

The August 10 preseason game is on Channel 55 on DirecTV in the Milwaukee area. Not sure about the other TV options.

Pre season game against the Browns. I know winning and losing these games doesn't mean much but don't we all want to see the team play well? As it concerns the starters? I Know Love will be playing but I hope it's only one series and he hands the ball off every play. Cannot have him injured in pre season after land that huge contract.

Might be going to Aug 24. Been since like 2007. Went to quite a few during late 80s through mid 90s, but few since.
