Packers GM Brian Gutekunst explains 53-man roster decisions

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst spent over 20 minutes answering questions regarding his first 53-man roster of the 2023 season on Wednesday.

Here are the highlights from Gutekunst’s post-roster press conference:

— On youth: Wasn’t trying to get young. Wanted to get athletic and fast and competitive during training camp.

— On three running backs, Emanuel Wilson: “He took advantage of his opportunities.” Said he “really progressed” as an all-around back the last few weeks. “He certainly earned it.” The Packers loved his growth and upside as a player.

— On Tarvarius Moore: Dealt with a few injuries (including knee injury) that limited him in camp.
