Packers expected to release CB Stanford Samuels to make room for QB Jake Dolegala

The need for a fourth quarterback – and the requirement that all teams be at 85 players by Tuesday – requires the Green Bay Packers to make a roster move on Wednesday.

According to Bill Huber of SI.com, the corresponding roster move to signing quarterback Jake Dolegala will be releasing cornerback Stanford Samuels.

Dolegala was in Green Bay for a workout on Tuesday. He will need to pass a physical before the signing becomes official. The Packers need the extra quarterback with Jordan Love nursing a shoulder injury.

Samuels is expected to be the odd man out.
