Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said he would not be averse to attempting a two-point conversion after every touchdown this season. McCarthy believes having QB Aaron Rodgers as their quarterback would give the Packers more of an advantage for two-point attempts.

Texans | Duane Brown should be ready for Week 1
Houston Texans OT Duane Brown (quadriceps) may be able to return at some point during training camp but should be able to practice before the start of the season and be ready for Week 1.
Packers | Jeff Janis returning kicks
Green Bay Packers WR Jeff Janis has been receiving first-team repetitions with the kickoff return team. That could change when WR Ty Montgomery (ankle) returns, but Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette doesn’t believe it will.
Footballguys View: Janis has the measurables but just can get the most out of his talent. The Packers are clearly trying to find a role for him as he figures it out but he’s got to be running short on chances with head coach Mike McCarthy. As it stands, he won’t be on any but the deepest rosters.
