Green Bay’s minicamp will take place from June 10-12.
The 2025 NFL Draft is just three weeks away, and shortly before that event begins, NFL teams will start their offseason workout programs for veteran players. On Thursday, the league announced the dates that each of its 32 teams have selected for the start of that program, as well as the two weeks of OTA workouts and mandatory minicamp.
The Green Bay Packers, by virtue of not having hired a new head coach this offseason, can start their workout program no earlier than the Monday prior to the Draft. As they are not an organization that is inclined to waste time, the Packers have indeed selected that date, April 21st, as the start of the program.
Players will be able to report to team facilities to begin off-the-field workouts and installations on that date as part of phase 1 of the offseason program. Then, about a month later, the on-field phase will begin as the team begins having walkthrough practices without pads.
That phase, Organized Team Activities or OTAs, will begin for the Packers just after Memorial Day. Green Bay will have three days of OTA practices each of the next two weeks: on May 27, 28, and 30 and then the following week on June 2, 3, and 5. Teams are allowed to hold 10 days’ worth of OTAs, but for the time being the Packers have just these six days scheduled.
Finally, the Packers will wrap up the offseason program with their mandatory minicamp. This year, that will take place during the second week of June, running from Tuesday, June 10 to Thursday, June 12.
In the past, the Packers have made minicamp practices open to the public if weather permits. OTA practices were also often public in previous years, but the last few years have seen the team elect to close those practices instead.
One event that the Packers have not yet scheduled is their rookie minicamp. Typically, Green Bay has held that the weekend immediately following the NFL Draft, but they can do so on either of the next two weekends. This year those dates fall from May 2-4 or May 9-11, but no decision has been revealed on when the Packers will hold that set of practices as yet.
After the conclusion of minicamp, the Packers’ next time together will be when they report for training camp later on in the summer. Training camp’s start date will be somewhat dependent on the preseason schedule, particularly whether the Packers are selected to play in this year’s Hall of Fame Game. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for updates on the report date and practice schedule for training camp.
