Well, that was weird. Earlier it was reported that the Green Bay Packers had offered free agent linebacker Ahmad Brooks a contract, but he left town. Now he has reportedly signed a deal with the Packers.
It’s for one year and $5 million.
The #Packers are signing LB Ahmad Brooks to a 1-year deal that can be worth up to $5M, source said. Another(!) GB free agent signing coming.

That’s a nice chunk of change for the Packers to hand a guy who is expected to be a backup.
