Packers Elevate Only Winfree: What It Means vs. Jets

GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers on Saturday elevated receiver Juwann Winfree to the 53-man roster for Sunday’s game against the New York Jets at Lambeau Field.

What does that roster move mean? And perhaps more importantly, what does it mean that some other transactions weren’t made?

Elevated: Receiver Juwann Winfree

With rookie Christian Watson out again with a hamstring injury, the Packers moved Winfree up to the gameday roster for the third time this season. That’s the limit. If the Packers need Winfree later in the season, it will come with a permanent promotion to the 53-man roster.
