Former #Packers LB Sam Barrington lands in New Orleans. He was released by the Chiefs a couple weeks ago.

Bears signed CJ Wilson to replace Will Sutton (no Packer connection) who was put on IR
Packer running back Kniles Davis played for the Chiefs last weekend. Good luck and thank you for your service.
Lots of news about former Packers:
Joe Callahan was released by Cleveland. With Rodgers a bit gimpy, might Callahan find his way to the Packer's P.S?
Justin Perrillo was signed by the Bears for their P.S.
Kennard Backman was signed by New England to their P.S.
Rick Lovato was cut by Washington.
Thomas Gafford signed with Denver
Henry Buriss, former Packer QB, just won a Grey Cup I believe.
NYTimes says he just had a tryout, believe he was on the roster for awhile though. However, the Packers All-Time Roster disagrees with me.
Apparently, Buriss was on the roster but must not have played. Then he was released and signed to the P.S.

The Green Bay Packers have signed quarterback Henry Burris to the team's practice squad, GM/Head Coach Mike Sherman announced today.
Burris had been waived from the club's 53-man roster Friday to make room for safety Matt Bowen, a former St. Louis Ram signed as a free agent.
Yes !

‘Somebody pinch me and wake me up’: Ottawa Redblacks’ Henry Burris savours Grey Cup win

The Green Bay Packers took interest in Henry Burress after the 2000 CFL season ended, and signed him to a contract.
Burris began playing in the 2001 NFL season, when he spent several weeks as the Packers' ( Roster third-string quarterback ) , before he was released and then he spent the rest of the season on their practice squad.
This fella was amazing on Sunday in what is being touted as one of the greatest ever Grey Cup games. Playing injured, the Ottawa Redblacks QB, Henry Burress put on one of the greatest All Time Grey Cup performances ( the games MVP ). He's a class act and has had a solid CFL career.
His reaction following that huge win on Sunday was wonderful to see. I've seen few better reactions following any Championship victory celebration. His teammates love him; Ottawa loves him.
I'd have to assume a Redblack is a player on the CFL's Ottawa team.

Ah, I see. Reading your link, it appears the Redblacks are named after the gambling card game "rouge et noir".
Should've named the team the "Othellos" instead, after the non-gambling board game othello. That name would appear less racist to the ignorant mind. :)
Will Blackmon made some plays against the Packers in the Washington game. I thought for sure it was a different guy, or maybe Will Blackmon, Jr. But it's the same guy.
Its not far off.

Browns also terminate CB Tramon Williams' deal. What a force he was in GB -- sparked SB run, played with one good arm in '11, forced 32 TOs.
