Cheese Curds, 8/1: Bennett responds to Jamal Adams, Bulaga remains an elite RT

The Green Bay Packers continue to work at training camp this week, and the team is staying on their game both on and off the field. Between the lines, we have right tackle Bryan Bulaga getting some attention (finally), after not getting it from national sources and his fellow players last season. Meanwhile, rookie Josh Jones continues to get attention for what he is doing on the other side of the football, as he keeps making plays day after day.

Off the field, tight end Martellus Bennett continues to speak his mind on social media about the controversial issues of the day. This week, it’s comments from a rookie on another team that have sent some shockwaves through the NFL community, and Bennett provided his opinions in his typical blunt and honest form.

Check out these items and more below in today’s curds, and keep it locked on our practice thread throughout the morning.

This was a remarkably abrupt retirement, which came a few days into his first training camp with the Jaguars.

Jamal Adams, Morris Claiborne willing to “die” on football field | ProFootballTalk
Fans actually cheered Jets rookie Jamal Adams when he said "if I had a perfect place to die, I would die on the field." For a league that has been trying to give fans and players the impression that it values player safety - and coming from a player who's a member of the NFLPA - this seems like a pretty reckless sentiment.

Packers tight end Martellus Bennett has a very different feeling on the matter in response to Adams’ comment:

You can make your own judgments on that.
