Former Jets running back Joe McKnight is about to get a fresh start, in a totally different environment. McKnight just tweeted that he was "headed to Green Bay tomorrow,' which leads one to believe he's signing with the Packers. There's a reasonable fit there, since the Packers are short in the backfield after DuJuan Harris'...

BUT doesn't McKnight return punts and kicks? SO could this mean Ross is out as well?

Anyways some interesting things have happen to McKnight...

McKnight told the New York Daily News he gained 16 pounds this offseason by eating a "lot of McDonald's." The Super Size Me diet apparently doesn't work well for NFL players.

"I was eating healthy, but the majority of time I was eating bad. I wasn't eating all the right stuff. ... Like Tim Tebow," McKnight said.

Joe McKnight’s bizarre training camp has ended with the running back as one of the team’s first cuts. The Jets released 14 players on Monday morning, including the running back who in the past few weeks had: failed his conditioning test, suffered migraines, been arrested, had a concussion and been unable to walk to the practice field. On May 16, McKnight said, “I don’t care who they bring in, they’re going (to have to) kill me to take my spot.”

I honestly would just kept Starks over McKnight. Is he better than Ross as a Returner? That is the question.

PFT article updated to say he's going to GB for a workout, not necessarily to sign a contract.

Packers are short on depth at RB?

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔
