## Resource

The Packers’ high-stakes gamble on rookie kicker Trey Smack is facing a real test as veteran Lucas Havrisik outperforms him in camp, proving he’s the reliable option they need — especially after last year’s playoff miss. With Smack’s long-range power overshadowed by shaky short-yardage consistency, Havrisik’s clutch performances — including a franchise-record 61-yarder — could force a tough but necessary decision: trust the draft pick or the proven performer.
