The Packers reached injury settlements with 3 players on Wednesday

According to NFL reporter Aaron Wilson, the Green Bay Packers released the following players with an injury settlement: running back Tyler Goodson, safety Tarvarius Moore and long snapper Broughton Hatcher. They join offensive lineman Jake Hanson, who was released with an injury settlement earlier this offseason.

Players receive injury settlements when their injuries do not justify a year-long injured reserve stint. After players are waived with an injury designation (usually around cutdowns) and go unclaimed on waivers, they then revert to their original team’s injured reserve. From that point on, teams can then reach injury settlements with those players.
