2025 Packers Training Camp Preview: Sean Rhyan Turn On The Interior?

Green Bay, WI – July 7, 2025, 04:34 PM +07

As the Green Bay Packers gear up for training camp on July 23 at Ray Nitschke Field, all eyes are on the interior offensive line, where third-year guard Sean Rhyan could emerge as a breakout star. With the team aiming to rebound from a 10-7 season and a Wild Card loss in 2024, Rhyan’s prospects are a key storyline, as reported by ESPN.

Rhyan, a 2022 third-round pick from UCLA, started all 17 games at right guard in 2024, logging 1,023 snaps and helping the Packers rank fifth in rushing offense (140.8 yards per game). His 2024 PFF grade of 65.8, with a run-blocking score of 58.2 (81st out of 140 guards), shows promise, though his pass protection (four sacks allowed, 28 pressures) needs work. GM Brian Gutekunst sees upside, noting, “Sean’s shown growth, and camp will test his ceiling.”

The interior line faces a shakeup with Aaron Banks’ addition at left guard and Elgton Jenkins shifting to center, leaving right guard as Rhyan’s battleground. He’ll face competition from 2024 first-rounder Jordan Morgan, who impressed in OTAs with a 76.3 college PFF grade. Coach Matt LaFleur emphasized, “Sean’s got to step up; Jordan’s pushing hard.” Rhyan’s 6-foot-5, 321-pound frame and 2023 playoff experience—zero sacks allowed in two games—give him an edge, but consistency is key.

Injuries to Josh Myers (cut to Jets) and Rasheed Walker’s penalty issues (nine in 2024) open the door for Rhyan. His contract, expiring after 2025 with a $1.3 million cap hit, adds urgency. Fans on X are optimistic, with posts like “Rhyan could lock it down!” With $6.8 million cap space, the Packers can invest if he shines.

Rhyan’s camp performance could solidify him as a cornerstone, protecting Jordan Love (3,814 yards in 2024). Can he turn on the interior and power a Super Bowl LX run? Stay tuned to ESPN for updates.

Dan Campbell Reveals Amon-Ra St. Brown’s Injury Update and Praises His “Extraordinary Will” After 44–30 Win Over Cowboys
Detroit, Michigan – After the fiery 44–30 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, head coach Dan Campbell entered the press room with a mixture of relief and pride. It wasn’t just because the Lions kept their momentum heading into the end of the season — it was also because of positive news regarding star Amon-Ra St. Brown. Campbell confirmed that the ankle injury that had the entire team worried all week is actually only minor and will fully recover in one to two days. Campbell said St. Brown was nearly listed as out before the game, yet he still appeared in the lineup and played at an intensity no different from someone completely healthy. That, according to Campbell, perfectly reflects St. Brown’s true nature. No quitting, no complaining, and always ready to fight for Detroit. In a game with huge playoff implications, that performance became even more valuable. When asked about St. Brown’s spirit, Campbell couldn’t hide his pride. He shared with deep emotion about his player’s tireless fighting mentality. “His will is completely different. He never accepts taking a step back, no matter how much his body hurts. St. Brown is the one who sets the standard for us every day, and no one can replace that spirit.” Those words left the entire press room silent for a few seconds. On the field, St. Brown continued to prove his worth with six catches for 92 yards, becoming the focal point of the Lions’ offense. His presence not only opened opportunities for teammates but also gave Jared Goff confidence in critical moments. Those efforts came from a player who, just hours before kickoff, was still undergoing constant medical checks to determine if he could play. Campbell closed the press conference with a clear message that the win over the Cowboys wasn’t just about tactics or talent — it was about the fighting spirit of players like St. Brown. The news that his injury is only a minor issue allowed the entire team to breathe a sigh of relief. And if the Lions truly want to go far this season, the image of St. Brown rising above the pain will be the inspiration for the whole team on the road ahead.
