Did they just waive Kingsley Keke!?

Well Packers needed more room to bring Cobb, Z. Smith and Merciless back, as I believe they only had one spot open, but I certainly wasn't expecting Keke.

Keke did miss time due to "personal reasons"... but Packers sure aren't opening up on details of that.

Kingsley last played for the Packers in Week 15 The Green Bay Packers surprised many on Wednesday by waiving defensive lineman Keke Kingsley. Kingsley, a 2019 fifth-round pick, had started 17 games over the last two seasons with the team and had played the third-most snaps among defensive linemen in Green Bay in the 2021 regular season.
Kingsley was a weekly contributor for the Packers up until Week 16. Prior to then, Kingsley had recorded 30-plus defensive snaps  in all but two games that he played in.
Kingsley was first listed as inactive  by the Packers against the Cleveland Browns in Week 16, which came as a surprise as Kingsley had practiced fully-healthy with the squad throughout the week. The coaching staff later called Kingsley’s absence a “personal issue.”
Kingsley later was placed on the reserve/Covid-19 list but was activated before the Packers’ regular-season finale  against the Detroit Lions in Week 17. Kingsley was ruled out with an illness for that game .
There almost certainly is something happening behind the scenes with this move, as it’s rare for a team to release a defensive starter who had played in that role for nearly four months just to have him ruled inactive for the last month of the season and then released before their first playoff game. Behind Kenny Clark (782 snaps) and Dean Lowry (674), the team has played Tyler Lancaster (319), T.J. Slaton (255), Abdullah Anderson (49) and Jack Heflin (17) in rotational roles on the defensive line.
It’s worth noting that Anderson, currently on the practice squad, was protected this week  along with fellow defensive lineman R.J. McIntosh, who hasn’t played a regular-season snap for the Packers this year.
This move could have been made to bring receiver Randall Cobb up from the injured reserve list, as Cobb’s 21-day practice window ends tomorrow, meaning he will officially start to count against the 53-man roster if the team wants him to be available for the playoffs. Earlier today, head coach Matt LaFleur stated he anticipates Cobb to play against the 49ers .

You win beast. I was trying and trying start a new thread but got hung up. Then the board told me we already had a page for this topic. I was thinking, No we don't. I checked before starting a new one."

Nope you were already there about 30 seconds before me. If only I could copy and paste quicker.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of the non-playoff teams claim Keke (if possible)

Must be some serious behind the scenes issues for him to get waived when he's been the best interior pass rusher behind Clark the past two seasons. I dont think it's a matter of roster space since they could have just waived Heflin who hasn't been on a game day roster all year.
