NFL Cutdowns: Former Packers pre-draft visitors released on Sunday
The Panthers waived linebacker Trevin Wallace, who was a starter for them last year, on Sunday
In Canton, Ohio, on August 6, 2026, the Green Bay Packers made significant cuts to their roster. The team targeted their pre-draft visitors, including quarterbacks Hendon Hooker, running back Velus Jones Jr., receiver Anthony Smith, tight end Kiran Amegadjie, and defensive linemen Eric Johnson II and Michael Heldman. The Packers also waived players Trevin Wallace and D’Arco Perkins-McAllister, who had issues during their college careers.
Edge defender Sam Williams faced a felony sexual battery charge, but the charges were later dropped, and the Packers do not expect him to make the roster. Cornerback Chris Edmonds and safety Jammie Robinson were also released, with Edmonds having a history as a special teamer and Robinson looking to catch on with his sixth team in four years.
