Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
Snow is much more pleasant to look at than to play in. I’ll be the first to admit that. I’m glad I wasn’t out there in Green Bay today.
With that in mind, below are some of the scenes from the Green Bay Packers’ first practice of the week leading up to their Monday Night Football matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Yes, the Packers avoided practicing in their indoor facility today, but Lambeau Field is expected to be snowy on Monday night, so you might as well prepare in a similar environment.

CB Jaire Alexander was back for Thursday’s non-padded (and snowy) practice.

It’s finally football weather.
Only Javon Bullard and Quay Walker — both with ankle injuries — not practicing.

No Bullard or Quay Walker today. Bullard inactive last week and Walker injured at Seattle.
Alexander is practicing.

#Packers practicing outdoors. 3”-5” inches of snow today in Green Bay. More predicted when they host #Saints Monday night. Jaire (knee) was out there. Quay Walker (ankle) Javon Bullard (ankle) were not. I accidentally hit “Slo-Mo” shooting video of #85 Tucker Kraft and the TE’s. pic.twitter.com/xZXk8lBRX6

Good luck to Saints rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler, who is expected to start for New Orleans this week. This probably isn’t what he imagined when he was drafted by a dome team in April.
For extra coverage, here’s a look at snowy Lambeau Field on Thursday:
