Boom.. his gaffe last year and then again yesterday was probably enough to seal the deal.

The Green Bay Packers have released WR Jeremy Ross. The transaction was announced Monday by Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations Ted Thompson. Ross played i...

He should have never made the final 53. This kid has contributed heavily to our losing some very big games. I'm glad he's gone.

In Chat, which you all were there, I was saying it's the best time to release a player just before the BYE cuz then you get that extra week to prepare the new kid on the block.

With the injury situation at RB I wouldn't be surprised if they activate Michael Hill from the PS.

I don't think RB Angelo Pease has been signed by anyone. I liked that kid. Seemed to have what it takes, and was kind of surprised he didn't get a better shot.

Micah Hyde for KR/PR.

Expect Cobb back receiving the ball on Kicks and Punts. And the Packers calling up a RB.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I think they'll add Michael Hill from the PS.

They probably don't want that RB situation like yesterday to happen again.

Chris Rainey works out for the Chiefs, runs in the low 4.3s.... kid was a dynamic open space player for the Gators in college.

He has some legal issues..

Hate to see a guy fail, but Ross just didn't seem to get any better on his decsion making.

I'm also betting The RB Hill will be moved to the 53 man roster.

Seems The packers can NEVER have enough rb's on the roster.

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

I bet the Packers fill 53rd spot with someone we never would have guessed.

Edit, cross your fingers, there's hope the Packers might sign him back!

We made a change today with Jeremy Ross. As always, the roster is a constant conversation. ...Production, performance always part of those decisions. We haven't given up on Jeremy. Had some opportunities. He's obviously not with us right now but I have no problem working with him again.

the spot will go to either a RB or WR with return ability.

Joe McKnight fits the bill, and was had a workout recently.

but I just can't see us not having 5 WR on the roster,

I don't think Johnson or Dorsey have experience as returners, so they will stay on the PS. Ted may have to go outside Wisconsin to pick up a guy.

Rainey sounds good to me, but so far he has no link to the Packers at all - work out or whatever. McKnight also sounds good, and he did work out. I don't know anything about Hill. What is he - speed back, power runner, shifty?

With a strong chance of both Lacy and Starks coming back for the Detroit game in addition to Franklin, I don't think it is automatic they sign a RB. I still hope they don't use Cobb as the primary returner.

I have to think that the only reason we stuck with Ross was because no one else stepped up and MM did not want to risk Cobb. A little less caution may have resulted in a win or two. Of course it may have resulted in 2 losses anyway along with the loss of a huge part of our offense as well. Its all water under the bridge now though.
