Packers release former Wisconsin Badgers WR Danny Davis
According to a press release, the Green Bay Packers released former Wisconsin Badgers wide receiver Danny Davis on Tuesday to get down to the 80-man roster limit before the third preseason game.
Despite going undrafted in 2022, Davis performed well during camp and caught the attention of the Packers’ coaching staff. He put himself in the mix after an impressive preseason debut where he registered two catches for 45 yards and a touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers.
As luck would have it, the former Badger suffered an injury that kept him out of Green Bay’s second preseason game against New Orleans, making an already unlikely shot at the initial 53-man roster even more doubtful.
Don’t be surprised if Davis, a five-year contributor for UW, finds his way back onto the Packers practice squad after the final roster cutdowns.
