The Green Bay Packers are reportedly looking to re-sign nose tackle BJ Raji, according to PackerReport.com, giving him a chance to come back to Green Bay after a torn biceps cost him the entire 2014 season.
Raji remained in Green Bay for the duration of the 2014 campaign while rehabbing the injury, and head coach Mike McCarthy was happy to have him around.

"I’m glad he stayed here,” McCarthy said last week at the NFL Combine, via the Sporting News. “I’m glad he stayed with us and was part of the family. I thought it was good having him around, it was good for the young guys. So, hope to get him back, too. Would be great to have him back."
The massive nose tackle remained around the team to "lend his voice" to the defense, while also getting some moral support after the first significant injury of his six-year NFL career.
"That night was a tough night for me," Raji said back n September. "Then after that it was just like, listen, football has been great to me. I’m playing football for 14 years straight. This is part of the game. I feel fortunate to have lasted that long without some serious injury. Just moving forward, it’s a part of the game, so really nothing you can do."
