GREEN BAY – The Green Bay Packers knew it would be a challenge to re-sign nose tackle T.J. Slaton and now it appears they are going to lose him in free agency.
Barring a last-second decision to match an offer Slaton receives during the NFL’s free agency negotiating period – and there are no indications the Packers will do that – Slaton is unlikely to return, a source familiar with the defensive line free-agent market said.
Slaton is an unrestricted free agent who is free to sign with any team in the NFL.
