GREEN BAY, Wis. – Before the start of OTAs in May, Green Bay Packers special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia was asked whether the team would take kickers Anders Carlson, Greg Joseph and Jack Podlesny to training camp.
“I don’t know the answer to that,” Bisaccia said. “It might be those three. It might be three other ones. I don’t know. It might be six.”
The Packers are hoping that No. 6 will be the charm.
After Carlson and Joseph traded hits and misses throughout training camp and the preseason, and after churning through youngsters Podlesny, James Turner and Alex Hale, the Packers released Carlson during their 53-man roster cutdown on Tuesday.
