The Green Bay Packers hosted workouts for 10 players on Thursday, per the NFL's transaction wire, and at least one is reportedly signing with the team.
As Matt LaFleur promised, the Packers held workouts for several long snappers. Matt Orzech is dealing with a calf injury, leaving the Packers with a need for a long snapper during the early portion of training camp. The team also worked out three tight ends, another position lacking depth to start camp. It's possible a flurry of roster moves could be arriving as soon as Friday, a common occurrence for teams as injuries mount at positions during training camp.
The list of players to work out for the Packers on Thursday:
- LS Cal Adomitis (Pittsburgh)
- WR Elijhah Badger (Florida)
- TE McCallan Castles (Tennessee)
- WR Elijah Cooks (San Jose State)
- LS John Ferlmann (Ohio State)
- TE Brandon Frazier (Auburn)
- LS Brent Matiscik (TCU)
- WR Titus Mokiao-Atimalala (UCLA)
- TE Briley Moore (Kansas State)
- WR Kaden Prather (Maryland)
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Packers are signing Prather to a one-year
deal -- adding another healthy player at wide receiver. More on Prather here.
Adomitis, an All-American at Pitt in 2021, has played in 58 career NFL games, including 49 for the Cincinnati Bengals between 2022 and 2024. He was the snapper for nine games for the Philadelphia Eagles last season. Neither Ferlmann nor Matiscik has snapped in an NFL game. Signing Adomitis could give the Packers a legitimate competitor for Orzech if the team is willing to roster two long snappers through camp.
Castles spent several months with the Packers but was released earlier this year. Moore caught four touchdown passes during his stop in the UFL this year.
