Brett Goode's return gives Packers kicker Mason Crosby some stability

GREEN BAY, Wis. – Two-thirds of the Green Bay Packers’ field-goal operation is back together.

Kicker Mason Crosby now has his long snapper back. The Packers re-signed veteran Brett Goode on Saturday after a rocky couple of weeks for the field-goal unit that had a rookie snapper, Derek Hart, and a rookie holder, punter Justin Vogel.

The Packers are keeping Hart – for now – but as long as there is no drop off in Goode’s performance, it’s likely he will be the opening-day snapper for the 10th straight season. They did not have to release Hart or anyone else to make room for Goode because they had been one short of the 90-man training camp roster limit since they released defensive tackle Letroy Guion last week.
