The Green Bay Packers’ cuts have been coming down heavy over the last few hours, with the news about guard Josh Sitton being the most shocking. However, news has leaked out about another potential starter getting the boot today: inside linebacker Sam Barrington.
A source close to ILB Sam Barrington said the #Packers have told Barrington he is being released. Team has made no announcement.

After missing most of last season with an ankle injury, Barrington sat out the entire offseason program and started training camp on the PUP list.
