GREEN BAY, Wis. – National championship-winning receiver Cornelius Johnson, a seventh-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Chargers, worked out for the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday, according to NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
The Packers could have an opening on the practice squad. The receiver they signed last week, T.J. Luther, was injured during his first practice with the team on Wednesday.
Johnson is an intriguing, high-upside prospect. Before this year’s draft, he measured 6-foot-2 3/4 and ran his 40 in 4.44 seconds. With a 37.5-inch vertical, his Relative Athletic Score was 9.
