With the emergence of Christian Watson and the return of Romeo Doubs from his ankle injury, there's little reason to keep Watkins around.
The veteran wide out had seen his playing time reduced in recent weeks and offered precious little when he did see the field.
The move will also allow the Packers to see more of seventh round draft pick Samori Toure, who has shown promise in limited opportunities.
