Can't figure out why the fuck they resigned this guy with the other guys still pending. He should have been the first one they told to hit the road.

Packers agree to re-sign DB Will Redmond
By Zach Kruse

The Green Bay Packers are bringing back one of their best special teams players from the 2019 season.

According to Josina Anderson of ESPN, the Packers have agreed to terms with free agent defensive back Will Redmond.

Once a third-round pick of the San Francisco 49ers as a cornerback, Redmond moved to safety in 2019 and played in 13 games for the Packers, tallying 36 tackles, one pass break up and one tackle for loss.

Redmond did his best work on special teams, producing a team-high nine special teams tackles. He was especially effective as a gunner covering punts.

The 26-year-old played 271 snaps on defense but struggled at times in man-to-man coverage. He’ll provide defensive coordinator Mike Pettine with depth in the secondary.

As a #4 S and STer he was good... though I thought they'd get Campbell back first, who might be a decent #3 S.

Redmond is basically a ST coverage guy.

As for Redmond. I am not thrilled about him although I hear is a stud on Special Teams. And I suppose we need ditch diggers.

We need a down vote button for the asshole posts
