Green Bay — It made no difference to me that the Green Bay Packers made no financial commitment to Colt Lyerla a year and a half ago.
Once the Packers signed the former Oregon tight end as a free agent in May 2014, the blunt truth was the organization would and did compromise its standards on character and should be categorized as just another win-at-all-costs team in the National Football League.
Lyerla's signing, not long after his invitation to a post-draft rookie orientation camp, was in response to a gaping hole at tight end.
