The Green Bay Packers signed a new kicker this week in Brandon McManus, who is set to displace the recently released Brayden Narveson, who was picked up by the team off waivers after the cutdown deadline at the end of the preseason. General manager Brian Gutekunst addressed the press about the signing of McManus on Wednesday, which obviously came with some scrutiny associated with McManus being named in a civil sexual assault lawsuit that led to his release with the Washington Commanders this spring.
The initial lawsuit, which claimed that McManus rubbed up against two two flight attendants while they were passing out meals and tried to kiss one, was dismissed by Florida courts because the accusers requested anonymity, which was given by the judge.
