GREEN BAY, Wis. – On Aug. 26, Nate McCrary scored the game-winning touchdown in the Green Bay Packers’ preseason victory over the Seattle Seahawks. Three days later, he was released in their 53-man roster cutdown.
On Wednesday, McCrary was back at Lambeau Field. With a couple injuries in the backfield and with him coming off a strong finish to his UFL season, the Packers re-signed McCrary.
“It’s honestly been exciting and, honestly, like a breath of fresh air just to be back here,” McCrary said. “Just being at home waiting for the next opportunity, training, training, waiting and waiting, finally being on a squad, it’s just a dream come true.
