Packers prep for Monday night Rams matchup with snowy conditions

 

GREEN BAY, Wis. (CBS 58) -- For Packers players, a bye week is a welcome break from the rigors of a long football season.

For Packers fans? They are ready for some football again.

The Packers take on the Rams at Lambeau Field Monday night.

The tarp is out and the shovels are out -- so it must be late December football at Lambeau Field, as the Packers deal with overnight snow.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur says the cold is the Packers friend.

"Monday night, but the cold is our friend," said LaFleur.

"I love when the weather turns Packer football weather," said Aaron Rodgers.

"It's been a while. Tremendous jumps if you ask me. That group out there," said Aaron Jones.

Rodgers was a full participant in practice today, but David Bakhtiari is a long shot to play, recovering from his appendectomy.
