Green Bay Packers release former Wisconsin long snapper

The Green Bay Packers released former Wisconsin long snapper Peter Bowden on Tuesday.

The move came just two days into Green Bay’s training camp began, as the Packers made the move to open a roster spot for quarterback Jacob Eason.

With Bowden’s departure, Green Bay is left with one long snapper on its 90-man roster: 2022 Super Bowl champion Matt Orzech.

At UW, Bowden served as the primary long snapper from 2021-23. He registered 39 starts at the position and was listed as a finalist for the Patrick Mannelly Award (awarded to the nation’s best long-snapper) in 2023.
