The Green Bay Packers added more depth to the defensive line by claiming Chris Slayton off of waivers from the San Francisco 49ers, according to the league’s transaction wire on Tuesday.
The Packers had an open roster spot after releasing kicker JJ Molson.
Slayton, 25, was a seventh-round pick of the New York Giants out of Syracuse in 2019. The Packers will be his sixth NFL team in four years but he’s yet to play in a regular-season game. He previously spent time on the practice squad of the Giants, Buffalo Bills, Atlanta Falcons, Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers.
