Packers release veteran wide receiver Ferguson

We thank Robert for everything he has given to the Packers,” Ted Thompson, Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations said in a statement. “In addition to his contributions on the playing field, Robert has been a positive influence in our locker room and a good teammate. As with any veteran player who has been here, we wanted to make this move early because this gives him the best chance to catch on with another organization in the NFL.”

I didn't see this coming. Any takers? I would hope mthat the Saints bring him in for a look.

No thanks, the guy is constantly hurt. We have enough receivers with talent already and I'd rather see those guys on the bench put on the field and get some experience.

Last year, definitely.

This year, I don't think there is any room, and it is getting a little late to learn a new system.

I do think he will be on someone's roster soon
