GREEN BAY – The Green Bay Packers have been bringing in kickers for tryouts almost every week this season, but each of the free agents has gone home after clearing COVID-19 protocols and getting one shot at impressing the team.
The latest prospect, rookie Nick Vogel, may be the first to stick.
Kicker Mason Crosby was not at practice Wednesday and the Packers later listed him on their injury report as “did not participate” because of left calf and back injuries. It’s not known when Crosby suffered the injuries, but he was not on the injury report last week, so it’s likely it happened at some point during the victory Sunday over the Houston Texans.
