Packers Secure Future Talent with Waiver Claimed 2023 Draft Pick
The Green Bay Packers have claimed cornerback Kyu Kelly off waivers and released safety Innis Gaines. Kelly, the son of former NFL cornerback Brian Kelly, was originally drafted by the Baltimore Ravens but was let go at the cutdown deadline. He then played five games for the Seattle Seahawks this season. The addition of Kelly raises questions about the health of starting cornerback Jaire Alexander, who missed the last game with a shoulder injury, and the depth of the Packers' cornerback position.
