The Green Bay Packers have released linebacker Tracy White and signed linebacker Danny Lansanah from the practice squad. Ted Thompson, Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations, announced the transactions Tuesday.

White, a 6-foot, 238-pound sixth-year player, appeared in 32 regular-season games and two playoff contests for the Packers.

Lansanah (lan-SAN-ah) signed with Green Bay as a non-drafted rookie free agent from Connecticut on May 2, 2008, and appeared in all four preseason games. He spent the first five weeks of the season on the Packers' practice squad.

A 6-foot-1, 248-pound player, Lansanah wears No. 58.

There is my boy... my dark horse to make the squad this year.

Danny can flat out play this game.. go back and find footage of his days at UConn.

The negative of the move is that means Hawk probably needs a little R&R in the defense..

Simply Lansanah has more upside in the base defense than White.. White is a solid special teamer..

I wonder if someone was sniffing around Danny on the P squad.

Sweet, I liked what I saw of Lansanah in the preseason

I bet our spies got a report about a team that was going to sign Lansanah and they decided that they didn't want another Hunter Hillenmayer case on their profiles.

I didn't explain myself well enough :)

The current regime already made a big attempt to match the big punter bluff made by our previous regime (Bj shanker)

Now I guess they didn't want to match the Hillenmeyer bluff

We have plenty of quality special teamers. Right now our concern is defense.

I could be very wrong, but I really haven't heard Tracy White's name called that much this season anyway.
