Competition for backup jobs at OLB is wide open for Packers

The Green Bay Packers’ competition for depth spots at outside linebacker was bolstered by the return of Randy Ramsey, who has missed the last year while recovering from a significant ankle but finally came off the PUP list on Friday.

Coach Matt LaFleur made it clear that the backup spots behind entrenched starters Rashan Gary and Preston Smith is still wide open through the first week of training camp.

“Right now, it’s pretty clear cut who are 1 and 2 are, but as far of 3 through 5, I think it’s anyone’s guess,” LaFleur said Saturday.
