TE Dominique Dafney among initial cuts to get roster to 85

The Packers, along with every other NFL team, need to bring their roster to a maximum of 85 players as of 4pm est this afternoon in the first of three roster reductions leading up to the regular season.

Yesterday, the Green Bay released center Cole Schneider and cornerback Donte Vaughn, both with injury designations.

Today, the Packers are set to release a trio of players that will ensure they are at the 85 man roster limit.

The team will release running back BJ Baylor, offensive lineman George Moore and, perhaps in a bit of a surprise, tight end Dominique Dafney.
