According to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network, the Green Bay Packers have signed tight end Shaun Beyer to their practice squad, only their second outside signing to the 16-player unit. The other outside signing, cornerback Benjie Franklin via the Jacksonville Jaguars, worked out for the Packers during the pre-draft process (likely on an undrafted free agent recruiting trip.)
The Packers released three tight ends in their cutdown from 80-man rosters to their final 53 on Tuesday: Sal Cannella, Alize Mack and Nate Becker. Becker was waived with an injury designation, reverted to Green Bay’s injured reserve and will likely receive an injury settlement.
