According to NFL reporter Aaron Wilson, the Green Bay Packers have signed tight end Joel Wilson following his Monday workout with the team. Yesterday, the Packers worked out six players, including three tight ends, so it shouldn’t be surprising that he was added to the roster.
Wilson’s edition is interesting for several reasons. Green Bay is down bodies at the position, after Luke Musgrave went on the injured reserve for a lacerated kidney following the team’s win against the Los Angeles Chargers. At best, Musgrave will be back in three weeks, though, the coaching staff hasn’t been willing to commit to saying in public that he will be back this season.
