Michigan linebacker Rashan Gary enters the NFL with concerns about his shoulder. Concerns that have been downplayed by him and by his new team David Montgomery Jersey , the Packers.The downplaying continued on Friday, when Gary showed up for his first practice as a Packers with (drum roll) a brace on his shoulder.“Yeah, when I got hurt at Michigan, I came back Riley Ridley Jersey , and I wore the brace,” Gary said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. “I’m comfortable with it, wearing it. Me and the trainers decided just to wear it. I feel comfortable playing with it Greedy Williams Jersey , so I’m rocking it.”Coach Matt LaFleur also tried to adopt a “this is fine” vibe.“I’ll probably get more into that with those guys as we move forward,” LaFleur said regarding Gary’s shoulder. “I think it’s just totally precautionary.”Whether it’s totally precautionary or partially (or totally) something more remains to be seen. But no one can say the Packers didn’t have a full and fair ability to poke and prod the shoulder before making Gary the 12th pick in the draft. To the extent the condition scared off other teams that may have taken Gary earlier, that’s good news for Green Bay.If, of course Sione Takitaki Jersey , the shoulder really is fine. The 2023 NFL draft could be awarded to Kansas City, before a host city is chosen for the 2022 draft.The owners will discuss awarded the 2023 draft to Kansas City at today’s league meeting, according to Albert Breer of SI.com.As previously reported, the 2021 draft could be awarded to Cleveland today. It’s unclear why the NFL would award the 2023 draft before the 2022 draft Sheldrick Redwine Jersey , but apparently no cities have come forward with a good proposal to host in 2022. Given how big the draft has become, any city that has already committed to hosting any other event in April of 2022 may be unable to bid on the draft.The 2020 draft will be in Las Vegas.Among the cities that are also expressing interest in hosting the draft are Denver, Detroit, Green Bay Austin Seibert Jersey , Minnesota and Houston. Past hosts Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas and Nashville have all expressed some interest in hosting another draft in the future. The league is trying to make the draft a big annual event that attracts fans across the country and promotes the NFL during a time that used to be the league’s slow season.
