The Green Bay Packers will not be re-signing free agent tight end Tyler Davis before the 2025 season, according to reporting from Bill Huber of SI.com. Davis, 28, has been with the Packers since 2021. Injuries wrecked his last two seasons before they even began. In 2023, Davis tore his ACL during a preseason game and missed the rest of the year. In 2024, he injured his shoulder in training camp and was placed on season-ending injured reserve.

Former Green Bay Packers offensive tackle Andre Dillard signed with the San Francisco 49ers on Friday. Dillard, a first-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2022, spent the 2024 season with the Packers. Last year, Dillard appeared in 10 games as a backup and special teamer, playing 13 snaps on offense and 50 on special teams. Dillard played the 2024 season on a one-year deal and became an unrestricted free agent when his contract expired in March. He signed another one-year deal with the 49ers.

The Green Bay Packers signed 10 undrafted free agents following the 2025 NFL draft. With several large draft classes over the last few years, making the 53-man roster as an undrafted free agent has become increasingly difficult in Green Bay, but the franchise has a long-running history of giving rookie free agents a legitimate chance to win a roster spot at training camp. Which undrafted rookie has the best shot to make the 53-man roster in 2025?

The Carolina Panthers are sending a veteran edge rusher to the free agent market. According to reporting from Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the Panthers will release defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. The Green Bay Packers didn't add an edge rusher during the NFL draft until Day 3, when general manager Brian Gutekunst used back-to-back picks -- on Barryn Sorrell in the fourth round, and Collin Oliver in the fifth round -- to add competition to the defensive end group.

I'm not in the reporting business, but this is what I was told as well. Elgersma is going back to Green Bay to talk with the Packers, and his team is hopeful for a contract, but nothing guaranteed yet

Clowney has been good at every stop along the way, but he's going on his 7th team (assuming he doesn't sign with HOU, SEA, TEN, CLE, BAL or CAR) since 2018. What a wild ride. Had 44 pressures for CAR last season. 32 years old.
