Cheese Curds, 8/25: Roster decisions are now in Gutekunst’s hands

After a month of practices and preseason games, Brian Gutekunst and the Green Bay Packers’ personnel department now have all the pressure on them. The cut-down deadline to a 53-man roster is fast approaching on Tuesday afternoon, and with the Packers completing their preseason with a 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, the players on the roster bubble have no more opportunities to impress before that date.

Now it’s in the hands of the front office to decide on an initial 53-man roster. Predictions are coming in from all across the Packers media universe, but Gutekunst is already hard at work, having acquired a backup offensive lineman from Philadelphia on Sunday night.
