Julius Peppers more comfortable in second year with Packers
Posted Dec 27, 2015
The Green Bay Packers came into this season with a plan for how they wanted to handle Julius Peppers.
The 35-year-old pass rusher, who recently made the switch to 3-4 outside linebacker, was coming off a seven-sack campaign with the Packers in 2014, but defensive coordinator Dom Capers at times felt he leaned too heavily on Peppers. This year, he and coach Mike McCarthy set out to balance Peppers' workload.
