Green Bay Packers linebacker Quay Walker is working to be more disciplined this season.
Packers inside linebackers coach Kirk Olivadotti spoke to the media on Wednesday and hinted at how he talked to Walker about his ejections from last year.
“Those conversations are ongoing and he is more than willing to learn from all his mistakes,” Olivadotti said.

If Walker can get those ejections to come down, he’ll be able to put up even better numbers than he did last season, which is saying something.
He played all 17 games and finished with 121 total tackles (75 solo), 1.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, and seven passes defended.
The Packers have big plans for him after he was a first-round pick in last year’s NFL Draft. He’s going to be a special player if he pans out the way the Packers want him to.
