On Wednesday, The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman reported that outside linebacker Tipa Galeai has been designated to return by the Green Bay Packers. Galeai was at the Packers’ opening practice of the week. The pass-rusher was placed on injured reserve in Week 6 for a hamstring injury.
Prior to being shut down, Galeai had played 85 special teams snaps and no defensive snaps in 2022. Last season, he played 152 defensive snaps and 60 special teams snaps over seven games.
Green Bay’s outside linebacker room has recently gone through a period of change with the season-ending injury to starting Rashan Gary (ACL) and the release of Kobe Jones from the practice squad.
