GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) The Green Bay Packers are doubling down on their youth movement.Green Bay had the NFLs youngest roster at the start of the season, well before it lost 32-year-old offensive tackle to a knee injury and sent 29-year-old cornerback to the Buffalo Bills at the trade deadline.The oldest players on the Packers active roster are outside linebacker Preston Smith, who turns 31 on Nov. 17, and 30-year-old inside linebacker DeVondre Campbell. While the Packers (3-5) avoid using the word rebuild, their decision to Oakland Athletics Jersey trade Douglas last week indicated theyre looking to the future.But that doesnt mean theyre merely playing for draft position as their season approaches its halfway point. The Packers Sunday over the Los Angeles Rams snapped a four-game skid and showed they could play winning football while showcasing their younger players.ADVERTISEMENT The Packers started four rookies against the Rams, with injuries causing them to turn to two seventh-round picks in the secondary. Carrington Valentine responded with three pa ses defended and Anthony Johnson Jr. got his first career interception.Man, Im super proud of those Joe Morgan Jersey guys, said cornerback Jaire Alexander, who tipped the pa s that Johnson picked off. Its so fun to watch them come into practice and work and just perfect theyre craft, and its only going to get better from here because thats their standard now.While those two rookie defenders stepped up Sunday, Green Bays youth has been most evident on offense following the offseason trade of four-time MVP quarterback to the New York Jets. That offense has struggled for much of the season with first-year quarterback throwing primarily to rookies and second-year players.Love threw six touchdown pa ses without an interception in Green Bays first two games and then hit a wall. The Packers went five straight games without scoring a first-half touchdown.The Packers are hoping the win over the Rams can spark a surge. Love had one of his most efficient performances, going 20 for 26 for 228 yards. He didnt throw an interception in a game for the first time since Sept. 17. Rookie tight end and second-round pick Luke Musgrave scored his first touchdown.Its not easy in the NFL Marcus Semien Jersey to get a win, Love said. So any time we get one, were going to cherish it. But thats the thing that, going forward, weve got to just keep building on, keep growing and keep finding ways to win those tough games. Weve been put in positions where we havent got the outcome we wanted, and theres a lot we can learn and grow from. "And I think were going to have to keep doing that, keep building.WHATS WORKINGThe rookie cla s is showing progre s. Jayden Reed has a team-high 333 yards receiving.
