While starters won't play too long being that it's the first preseason game, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is unlikely to see action at all. The signal caller has missed practice this week to attend hearings stemming from his Deflategate legal issue against the NFL.

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, meanwhile, recently made headlines when he spoke out against the NFL's new 33-yard PAT rule the NFL is implementing.

"I think it goes against the league stance on player safety," Rodgers said Tuesday per ESPN. "It's now become a very important play, especially in the wintertime in Green Bay, when no field goal is guaranteed. And it doesn't go for just Green Bay. Any place that is cold or has rain or inclement weather, it's going to be an interesting decision. Do you go for the two-pointer from the 2 or do you go for a 33-yard field goal?"

These teams met in the regular season last year, with the Packers toppling the Patriots 26-21 on Nov. 30.
