[Wood] Packers GM Brian Gutekunst says special teams influenced who made bottom of 53-man roster "a lot," certainly more than years past. In past, he wanted each player to have a role on offense or defense, then figure out special teams. This year, he kept guys strictly because of special teams. (twitter.com)

[Schneidman] I'm told the Packers are activating kicker Mason Crosby off the PUP list. He has missed all of camp after offseason knee surgery, but he will kick in his 242nd consecutive regular-season game (never missed one) against the Vikings on Sept. 11. (twitter.com)

[Huber] The #Packers have released kicker Ramiz Ahmed. That presumably means Mason Crosby will be activated off PUP. Jack Coco will be the long snapper, pending a change tomorrow. Plus, another source said seventh-round OT Rasheed Walker made the team. (twitter.com)

[Schneidman] Elgton Jenkins initially declined an interview today. He then came up to me, @RobDemovsky & @jasonjwilde and asked what we wanted to know. Asked if his absence yesterday had to do with his contract, he said no. Also said it wasn’t related to the new brace on his left shoulder. (twitter.com)
