Overview
- The Packers signed receiver Quincy/Quincey Skinner Jr. and defensive lineman Eric Johnson to the practice squad on Wednesday, and they released Chris Hilton Jr. from the practice squad.
- Skinner joins Isaiah Neyor as one of two receivers on the practice squad while the team still has one open practice-squad spot to fill.
- Skinner went undrafted in 2025, spent time with the Falcons and the Jets this preseason, and finished his Vanderbilt career with 66 catches for about 809 yards and eight touchdowns.
- Eric Johnson is a 2022 fifth-round pick who has played in more than 50 NFL games and was added to replenish defensive-line depth after Green Bay lost practice-squad and roster linemen to other teams and injuries.
- The signings mainly shore up practice and emergency depth before the Week 2 game with the Jets and make an immediate roster resource to monitor for possible elevations if injuries force the Packers to adjust the 53-man roster.
