The Packers are making a change at punter. After drafting punter J.K. Scott in the fifth round of this year's draft, they waived Justin Vogel on Friday, a source tells Adam Schefter of ESPN.com (on Twitter).  Vogel signed with the Packers last year as an undrafted free agent and beat out Jacob Schum for the punting [...]

Well, so much for the punter competition. Scott better ready to hit the ground running and all he's advertised to be otherwise this could be a real debacle during the season.

I guess there must be someone else they want holding a roster spot as I thought a competition was a smart move. Feel for Vogel, but his resume last year should have other teams calling him or at least interested.

Scott is their guy, so at least this lets Vogel truly compete for a starting job.

This is due to something OFF the field.

This could've gone two ways. We release Vogel now so he has a chance to find another team or we could've thrown a charade of a "camp-battle" with Scott winning it regardless of how things went down.

The route we're taking now seems like the better one to me.

beast (2h) : Seems like he was just pissed because he was no longer the starter
beast (2h) : Campbell is right, he's rich and he doesn't have to explain sh!t... but that attitude gives teams reasons to never sign him again.

dfosterf (22-Feb) : I read De'Vondre Campbell's tweet this morning (via the New York Post) Florio says that if he invested his earnings wisely, he will be good

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : It should be halted now.

Zero2Cool (18-Feb) : Yep. You can do that with holding down ENTER on a command in Console of browser
Mucky Tundra (18-Feb) : even with the rapid fire posts?
