Jack-of-all-trades Micah Hyde could help Packers defense turn the corner

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- It was at the end of a long answer about the Green Bay Packers' ailing and struggling secondary when receiver Golden Tate last week called Micah Hyde “a jack-of-all-trades,” but surely the Detroit Lions receiver had no idea Sunday’s game would come down to a one-on-one matchup with the fourth-year defensive back.

Nevertheless, Tate sounded prophetic.

With the Packers losing cornerbacks left and right -- Quentin Rollins went to the hospital after a neck injury, while Damarious Randall and Makinton Dorleant couldn’t return from knee injuries -- Hyde was forced to move to a spot he hadn’t played in nearly four years.
