GREEN BAY – Tim Masthay is the lone punter remaining in the Packers’ training camp, but he’s not breathing easy.
“I guess there’s two parts to it for me,” Masthay said after Monday’s practice, discussing the release of the rookie punter and his head-to-head competition, Peter Mortell.
“One, I don’t feel like I’ve won anything yet. And two, I’m not here to just win a job, I’m not here to survive cut day. I’m here to help the Packers win football games. That’s what I’m interested in doing. That’s what I’m focused on doing.”
It was the expected, and sensible, response from Masthay, who has spoken often in the past about how he’s always competing with anyone else, anywhere in the league, who might take his job.
