The Green Bay Packers must have their roster trimmed to 53 players before 3:00 p.m. CT on Tuesday. Before Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur start making cuts, which LaFleur said will likely start on Tuesday, here are some final thoughts on the state of the roster and what could happen before the deadline:
— Patrick Taylor is a core special teamer for Rich Bisaccia, and his importance on special teams only amplified after Tyler Davis went down with a season-ending injury. He played on all the important special teams units this summer. While keeping only two running backs on the initial 53-man roster makes sense, I think Taylor is too important to Bisaccia for the Packers to cut him.
