Packers GM Brian Gutekunst announced earlier today that CB Tremon Smith was released after appearing in six games for Green Bay as their primary kick returner.
No time was wasted finding a replacement, as Gutekunst claimed former Jacksonville Jaguars RB Tyler Ervin off waivers, per Ian Rapoport.
The #Packers claimed former #Jaguars RB Tyler Ervin, source said. An interesting addition.
Ervin was drafted in the fourth-round by the Houston Texans in 2016. He has totalled over 1,200 yards as a kick/punt returner in 31 career games as a Texan and Jaguar.
