Well, we are all hip that Frost got cut today and new punter will be added, probably on Tuesday late or Wed before practice.

There were other moves on Monday:

Pettway and Barnett to IR. Why they didn't do that with Nick way back, I dunno.

They were replaced on the roster by defensive tackle Alfred Malone and cornerback Joe Porter, both signed from the practice squad.

The 6-foot-4, 312-pound Malone will wear No. 98. The 5-10, 203 pound Porter will wear No. 40. Both are first year players who have spent parts of the last two seasons on the Packers’ practice squad.


Maybe Malone will pull some kind of "Rocky Balboa" transformation, solidify our DLine, and we will win out and win the division!

Then, I'll wake up.

The two practice squad guys are lucky.

This time of year Ted uses the practice squad for scouting. He cuts guys and brings in others for a week or two then cuts them and brings in other guys for a look.

Their pay more than triples for the week too.

Malone is only a fresh warm body and Porter is perhaps getting a reward for hard work.

Hopefully Porter is a ST guy that likes to stay in his lane.
