## Resource

Training camp ignites fierce battles at cornerback and kicker for the Packers. At CB, Carrington Valentine leads but faces pressure from rising rookie Brandon Cisse and standout Benjamin St-Juste — with St-Juste’s flashes and Cisse’s future potential making this a tight race. At kicker, Trey Smack, the sixth-round draft pick, is the frontrunner — but a shaky offseason opens the door for Lucas Havrisik, who holds the team’s longest field goal record and proved reliable last year. Valentine may hold the starting CB spot for now, while Cisse is being groomed for the future. Smack likely gets the kicking nod, but Havrisik is ready to pounce — and the Packers can’t afford another playoff meltdown.
