3. Marquez Valdes-Scantling had the catch of the day.
The Packers' third-year receiver, who has come on over the past two weeks, made one of the best catches of training camp during a late team period.
Coming on a crossing route, Valdes-Scantling snagged a pass slightly behind him with one hand and pulled it into his body without breaking stride.
Speaking with reporters Wednesday, receivers coach Jason Vrable discussed the strides Valdes-Scantling has made in practice this summer and his optimism for how it will translate on the field this season.
"I've been with him for a year now and the last three days were the best I've seen out of him as far as his consistency," Vrable said. "He's playing fast. He's doing a great job cutting at the top of the route and breaking down. … If Matt asks a question in front of the whole group, right away he's the one guy who can kind of answer and say, 'Oh, that route is this.'
"When you're at that level and you have the type of speed he has, I really believe it'll equate to success for him this year."
