Packers lose LB Krys Barnes to Arizona Cardinals

Free agent linebacker Krys Barnes left the Green Bay Packers to sign a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals.

Barnes, who played the last three seasons with the Packers, was an unrestricted free agent after Green Bay declined to offer him a restricted tender.

The departure comes on the same day the Packers re-signed Eric Wilson, one of the team’s core special teamers from last season.

The Packers signed Barnes as an undrafted free agent out of UCLA. He played in 35 games and made 24 starts between the 2020 and 2022 seasons, tallying 190 tackles, 3.
