Packers Calendar: Driver Expected to Practice with Packers

Assuming his contract is finalized in time, the Packers wide receiver will practice with the team for the first time this offseason.

Wide receiver and Dancing With The Stars champion Donald Driver is expected to practice with the Packers for the first time this afternoon assuming his reportedly agreed-upon contract is finalized.

Following the long Memorial Day weekend, Packers players and coaches get back to work today with an Organized Team Activity (OTA) open to the public and the media beginning at 11:30 a.m. Central time at Ray Nitschke Field.

Driver has missed the first two phases of the offseason training program entirely and the first week of OTAs after taking part in the reality television show on ABC.

He joins a crowded but talented wide receiver group which will have some fierce competition for roster spots the remainder of this summer.

After practice, head coach Mike McCarthy will have his press conference broadcasted live on the Packers official website at 1:30 p.m.

Then from 1:00 to 8:00 p.m. Delaware North Companies Sportservice, the new food and beverage provider at Lambeau Field, will hold a job fair inside the atrium to hire new workers both immediately and for the 2012 season.
