No team claimed former Green Bay Packers tight end Jace Sternberger off of waivers on Wednesday, according to Field Yates of ESPN. The Packers released Sternberger on Tuesday.
It’s possible Sternberger could return to the Packers on the practice squad, but he might also be looking for a new opportunity after failing to make the team’s 53-man roster.
Sternberger, a third-round pick in 2019, just completed a two-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. He explained the reason for his suspension during the offseason.
Over two seasons in Green Bay, Sternberger caught only 12 passes in 18 games.
