The Green Bay Packers had not had a player claimed off of waivers at cutdowns since Taysom Hill was claimed by the New Orleans Saints in 2017. That all changed on Wednesday when three former Packers were picked up by other clubs.
Gone are receiver Grant DuBose, offensive lineman Royce Newman and safety Anthony Johnson Jr., players who were all originally draft picks by Green Bay. DuBose ended up on the AFC’s Miami Dolphins while Newman and Johnson landed in the conference, signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants, respectively.
