Packers Have No Qualms About ST Issues Ahead of Patriots Game

The Green Bay Packers have heard a vote of confidence in rookie kicker Trey Smack from special teams coordinator Cam Achord despite his ongoing struggles. Achord, who previously served as the New England Patriots‘ special teams coordinator for four years under Bill Belichick, said on Tuesday that he isn’t worried about Smack losing confidence after a series of missed kicks. The remarks surfaced on the heels of Smack missing his eighth kick of the season during the Packers’ 27-19 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Thursday, Oct. 29.
