GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers elevated outside linebacker La’Darius Hamilton and kicker Ramiz Ahmed from their practice squad on Saturday, two of several transactions made before Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Here’s what it all means.
Elevated: OLB La’Darius Hamilton
With star Rashan Gary going on injured reserve this week, the Packers had only Preston Smith, Kingsley Enagbare and Jonathan Garvin on the 53-man roster at outside linebacker. The choices to fill the void were elevating Hamilton from the practice squad or activating Tipa Galeai off injured reserve.
The Packers elevated Hamilton for last month’s game against Washington.
