Overview
- The Packers were awarded wide receiver Chris Hilton Jr. off waivers from the Washington Commanders on Sunday and will add him to the roster once he passes a team physical.
- Green Bay opened a roster spot by waiving cornerback Marlon Jones and safety Johnathan Baldwin with injury designations and re-signed receiver Kisean Johnson after a tryout.
- The team also worked out undrafted South Alabama receiver Devin Voisin as it scans for extra bodies and competition at the bottom of the receiver room.
- Hilton is an LSU product who measured 6'0" and 188 pounds at the combine and ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash, profiling as a vertical deep threat despite limited college route volume and contested-catch production.
- With short-term injuries to other receivers creating more practice reps, Hilton’s path is likely through special teams and preseason production to earn a spot on the 53-man roster or practice squad.
