Rashan Gary Snaps at Rookie OG for Complaining About Camp Workload
Green Bay, WI – August 2, 2025
Training camp in Green Bay is reaching a boiling point as veterans and rookies grind through a brutal summer of scorching heat and sky-high expectations. For many first-year players, the leap from college to the NFL is a harsh wake-up call.
During a grueling practice session, rookie offensive guard John Williams, a seventh-round pick from Cincinnati, was overheard grumbling about the relentless workload. Questioning whether the physical demands were too intense after his college days, the 6'4", 322-pound lineman drew attention from teammates who know the Packers’ culture has zero tolerance for complaints.
Enter Rashan Gary, the team’s star edge rusher, whose relentless drive sets the tone for the squad. Overhearing Williams, Gary didn’t hold back, delivering a fiery message that echoed across the practice field.

“You think this is college conditioning? Welcome to the fking NFL. You’re in Green Bay now—we don’t back down, we chase legends. If you’re tired, get stronger. If not, get out the damn way,” Gary barked.
The words were aimed squarely at Williams, who signed a four-year, $3.7 million deal and is battling for a depth role on the offensive line. Coaches lauded Gary’s leadership, noting that Williams responded by pushing through the rest of practice with renewed intensity, determined to prove his mettle in a locker room defined by grit.
Fans flooded social media with praise for Gary’s no-nonsense, tough-love approach, dubbing it “the Packers’ way.” As preseason looms, Green Bay’s message is crystal clear: only the toughest survive, and every snap is a step toward a playoff run.
