Green Bay — Upon returning to town to train, Sam Barrington made it clear he is ready to lead. And the moves the Green Bay Packers have made this off-season — letting A.J. Hawk, Brad Jones and Jamari Lattimore all walk — suggest that they feel the exact same way.
When OTAs and minicamp commence, expect to see Barrington at one inside linebacker spot.
"I'm not approaching it that it 'could' be," Barrington said. "I'm approaching like it is. When you take out all the pleasing everybody's emotions, I'm the veteran inside linebacker. It's my defense.
