Minicamp for the Green Bay Packers ended with a long field goal from veteran kicker Brandon McManus and a fitting send off for team president and CEO Mark Murphy on Thursday in Green Bay.
Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN, coach Matt LaFleur allowed practice to end early after McManus connected on a 58-yard field goal, and he then invited Murphy — the team’s president for the last 17 years — to break the huddle one final time.

Murphy’s break down: 1, 2, 3… Super Bowl.
LaFleur’s team worked during all three days of the mandatory minicamp running Tuesday through Thursday. The Packers will now be off until training camp opens with a practice on Wednesday, July 23.
Murphy, who reaches the mandatory retirement age of 70 in July, will be replaced by Ed Policy during the annual shareholder’s meeting on July 25. The Packers had the third-most wins in the NFL and won Super Bowl XLV during Murphy’s tenure.
