Green Bay Packers wide receiver Grant DuBose took a big step toward earning a spot on the initial 53-man roster with a statement performance in Green Bay’s preseason-opening win over the Cleveland Browns on Saturday.
DuBose, a seventh-round pick in the 2023 draft, produced five catches for a game-high 66 yards in the 23-10 win. One catch extended a drive on fourth down. Another was a toe-dragging sideline catch for 23 yards that help set up a field goal in the two-minute situation. And on one third-down play in the first half, DuBose got behind the coverage and drew a defensive holding penalty that might’ve prevented a long touchdown.
