giving joe callahan a chance to throw the football. callahan very impressive, kevin, off the scramble through the first three preseason games. >> kevin: you mentioned spriggs. a first-round pick. here is a spinning move and a loss of a yard. spriggs has a club, it looks like, on the right-hand. two hands but try doing it with one. particularly when you look at the inside hand for a left tackle. that's your punch hand. >> kevin: he struggled against oakland. went up against mac and he will make any tackle look bad. second down and twelve. the pocket. slips through the secondary. brought down by smith. the offensive line, that seventh, eighth or ninth spot on the line, really in focus with green bay. >> rich: it really is. we talk about it all the time, can you be a backup center, can you play both positions and can you jump out and play the tackling position. can you do something in the kicking game? can you be an extra tight end? the more you can do up front gives you the best opportunity to make the team. >> kevin: he was at the left g

add joe callahan to that list. it was just a preseason game last night but callahan played the first half, threw a touchdown pass and learned a few things along the way." callahan: "it was great to feel what it is like to be qb 1 for the night. it was a really cool experience to play in front of a huge crowd at lambeau. i grew up a packers fan so this is a dream come true for me." barclay: "he was real calm out there, played with poise. he came to the line, starred everyone in the eyes, he's a great guy and he earned it, man he's been working."kevin: "10 different packers caught passes in this game including a heavy usage of tight ends. the leading receiver was justin perillo with 5 catches for 52 yards." cook: "jp had a really good game and joe did a great job of finding him so they were clicking really well." perillo: "just running routes, jared cook is awesome, i'm in there every y brain, picking richard's brain too, just trying to learn from those guys." kevin: "no word yet on who is under center and starting fo

. >> rich: even if joe callahan doesn't make the 53-man roster, there's a good chance he sticks around the practice squad and gains experience. it's a great place for the young quarterback to learn his craft. >> kevin: with hundley injured and some uncertainty about that ankle, probably no surprise that callahan is getting snaps right now. >> rich: there's a chance that maybe he makes the roster. they may keep three quarterbacks. you never know. >> kevin: they may not have a choice. third and ten. he finds perillo with a great grab! the tight end picks it up. gain of 9. he's up to the 39 and close to a first down. let's see where the spot will put him. very close. yard. perillo has really got a good pair of hands. >> rich: he does a nice job catching the ball away from his body. mike mccarthy, he's watching closely to see how these young players perform. >> kevin: burks. he slices for five and he's up near the 40 -yard line. that will serve him well. what they liked abo on was his pass block, in addition to his running. that was a good run right there for a fourth and inches, when you

dan: joe callahan's last game action was for division three wesley college. tonight, he stepped up in competition just a bit, starting at quarterback for the packers against the browns in the preseason opener. aaron rodgers was one of 17 inactive players for green bay tonight, so callahan started and completed his first pass to new tight end jared cook. robert griffin the third made will his debut at quarterback for the browns, and his first drive ended with an interception by micah hyde near the goal line. but on the first play after the pick, james starks was drilled in the end so the packers were forced to free kick, and guess what happened? the browns fumbled and chris banjo recovered for the packers, the kind of three-play stretch you expect to see in the preseason. late in the first half, callahan got it going to john crockett for the first touchdown of the game. callahan completed 16 of 23 passes for 124 yards. the browns finally got into the end zone in the third quarter. cody kessler's first nfl pass went for this td to rashard the packers win they h

now joe callahan's a quarterback with the packers. what he's doing to improve every day next through their preseason, we have yet to see aaron rodgers take a snap. part of that probably has to do with the cancellation of the 1st preseason game. but the other reason is most likely an abundance of caution. in the packers 20-12 win over the raiders last night, brett hundley got the start and led the packers on a 14 play opening drive that ended with a 1 yard touchdown run by eddie lacy. however, he would leave the game during the next series when he suffered an ankle injury on the same ankle that held him out of the browns game. in came joe for 65 yards. he also ran the ball 4 times for 23 yards. all in all, it was another step in his learning process.
