Packers DL coach says Mike Daniels is “still a dominant player”

Defensive lineman Mike Daniels probably isn’t part of the Packers’ long-term future. He’s in the final year of his contract, and the Packers signed free agents Preston Smith and Za’Darius Smith and drafted Rashan Gary and Kingsley Keke in their front seven.

Some have wondered whether Daniels even is in the Packers’ plans for this season.

But Packers defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery sounds as if he foresees a role for Daniels.

“He’s still a dominant player,” Montgomery said, via Rob Demovsky of ESPN.
