Packers Sign RB Who Just Won SB Ring Before 2nd Preseason Game
The Green Bay Packers have added depth to their backfield, signing a recent Super Bowl champion ahead of the team’s second preseason game.
Green Bay is among the teams bringing players in for tryouts to evaluate fits for the 53-man roster or practice squad.
Before their first preseason game last weekend, the Packers signed offensive lineman Leticus Smith, who spent part of the 2024 season on the taxi squad.
To make room for Smith on the 90-man roster, Green Bay waived wide receiver Sam Brown.
The Packers’ preseason RB room has been thin at times, with MarShawn Lloyd and Emanuel Wilson dealing with injuries earlier in camp.
The good news: both Lloyd and Wilson returned to practice. Even so, Green Bay wanted another option to carry the rock in August.

Career Snapshot: Tyrion Davis-Price
-
Former 49ers draft pick; most recently with the Tennessee Titans (signed June 2, waived July 17).
Spent the 2024 season with the Super Bowl champion Eagles; appeared in one game (3 carries, 7 yards).
Logged seven total games over two seasons with San Francisco, tallying 120 rushing yards on 40 carries.
College: LSU.
The Packers’ RB pecking order appears set with Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson, MarShawn Lloyd, and Chris Brooks leading the way.
Davis-Price now gets a chance to put tape out in preseason and compete for a practice squad (taxi squad) spot.
With preseason reps available and recent returns from injury, Green Bay will evaluate how Davis-Price fits in short yardage, early-down work, and special teams. A clean August showing could keep him in the building into September.
