The Green Bay Packers are adding one of the stars of the USFL to the team’s 90-man roster ahead of training camp.
According to Bill Huber of SI.com, the Packers are signing tight end Sal Cannella, who led the USFL in receiving yards by a tight end and was named to the All-USFL team in 2022.
Cannella, 25, was one of four players to try out for the Packers on Wednesday. He previously played in the NFL for the Miami Dolphins and Chicago Bears.
Cannella (6-5, 230) went undrafted out of Auburn in 2020.
