Blue Bombers president and CEO Wade Miller says he expects 20,000 to be in attendance for the pre-season game. Also the team and the Raiders will also hosting a viewing party downtown.

The 15-year veteran hasn’t yet played in the pre-season. He was held out of last week’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens because of tightness in his back.

It’s the first time Green Bay has played a neutral-site exhibition game since it faced the Kansas City Chiefs in a Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio, in 2003. Brown is recovering from frostbitten feet he suffered during cryotherapy in France last month. He’s also testing new helmets after he recently lost a grievance to wear his old, uncertified helmet.
