And then there were two. The Green Bay Packers trimmed down the competition at kicker on Friday by releasing JJ Molson. The move leaves Mason Crosby to compete with Dominik Eberle for the job over the summer.
Molson, 25, spent a few weeks to end the 2020 season and all of the 2021 season on the Packers’ practice squad.
The Packers signed Eberle after hiring Rich Bisaccia as the team’s special teams coordinator, making it less likely Molson would be the one getting the opportunity to compete with Crosby, who has been the Packers kicker since 2007.
