Packers release four

By Kareem Copeland

The Green Bay Packers have announced that cornerback Trevor Ford, safety Khalil Jones, linebacker Tim Knicky and quarterback Noah Shepard have been released.

This is likely the precursor to announced signings of draft picks. I do believe the roster was at 79 (including Tramon Williams) of the 80-man limit. So, to add draft picks, some people gotta go

Ford was the only one of the quartet that ever saw game action, appearing in three games in 2009 after being signed as an undrafted free agent in May of 2009.

Jones was on the practice squad for the last two weeks of last season.

Both Knicky and Shepard were signed as undrafted free agents in April.

Surprised they let Ford go, if we need more depth anywhere, it's at CB.

Ford was more or less a camp body as his chances of making the final 53-man roster were rather slim. Lee, Underwood, and Bell are all better options imo for depth behind our main 3 CBs.

This is the time of year, that Jarrett Bush is thankful he has naked pictures of Ted Thompson.

Well, I'm not anti-Bush, but rather bummed we had enough injuries that we needed him on D. If I'm not mistaken, he's a good ST player.

Let's hope our DBs stay healthy enough that he stays mainly on ST, where he can help our team.

I will back Jarret Bush until he is no longer a Packer, the guy has stuck around because of his ST's play, he was asked to do a job last year that he had not prepared for, as bad as some thought he looked last year, he did show improvement each week after he was forced into the lineup.

Jarret Bush made his share of mistakes last year, but he gets blamed for a lot of bad plays that he is not respnsible for.

One other thing, he stays on the field, I'm also hoping the other guys mentioned can stay healthy, Packers are a better team if Jarret Bush is just concentrating on playing st's.

Back to the guys that were cut, is there a Practice Squad roster at this point, or do teams fill the PS after final cuts?
Some of these guys may end up there when it is all said and done.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

He would be a decent ST player if he could lay off the dumb penalties, but it seems like he can't so he really isn't even too good at that.

I was going to say the same thing - bush is great on ST ... at getting penalties ... cant get through a game without some kind of penalty on him during a ST play.

I'm not sure why people keep saying that Bush is good at special teams. I guess they think if people say it enough, it must be true. He once had two false starts on special teams in ONE game. How is that even possible?

packerfanoutwest (5m) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (7m) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (18m) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (2h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (2h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (2h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (2h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (2h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (2h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (2h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (2h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (3h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (4h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (4h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (4h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (4h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (4h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (5h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (5h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (5h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (6h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (6h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (6h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (6h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (8h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (8h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (8h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (8h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (9h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (9h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (9h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (9h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (9h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (9h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (9h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (9h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (9h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (9h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (9h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (9h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (9h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (9h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (9h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (9h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
