Mike McCarthy Is The Beast: Aaron Jones In, Deante Burton Out

The Green Bay Packers get running back Aaron Jones back from his two-game suspension this week. When they activate him, that would require a corresponding roster move. Someone would need to be cut. That guy was cornerback Deante Burton.

#Packers have released CB Deante Burton, the team announced. This creates a spot for RB Aaron Jones, who has been added to the 53-man roster.

Burton was claimed off waivers from the Atlanta Falcons on September 4. He got five defensive snaps on the season.
