The Green Bay Packers won the first practice against the New England Patriots, but based off reports, Bill Belichick and co. bounced back with a victory on Day 2. 

But, that didn't stop Packers rookie quarterback Sean Clifford from connecting with rookie wideout Cody Chrest on a last-ditch attempts to score a touchdown against the Patriots' second-team defense. Per reports, Clifford lobbed it up over two Patriots defenders and Chrest was able to reel in a deflected ball for six points.

Overall, it wasn't a great showing for the Packers – this was easily the best play of the day. Rookie tight end Luke Musgrave dropped a would-be touchdown and the defense also didn't have the same intensity it did on Wednesday.

The Packers get a shot at breaking the tie when the two teams face off for one last time at 8pm ET on Saturday, August 19.
