5 underdogs who could make Packers’ final 53-man roster

It’s decision time for the Green Bay Packers as they must trim their roster from 80 to 53 by Tuesday afternoon.

Players have the weekend off while the coaching staff and front office pour over the work put in by each of them. Some guys like Rasheed Walker hope their late pushes are enough to secure a spot on the final roster.

Keep your eye on these five underdogs who could shock the football world by making the Green Bay Packers’ final 53-man roster.

Walker missed time throughout training camp due to an injury but showed out in the preseason finale against the Kansas City Chiefs. He played right tackle with the backups and more than held his own. In 33 pass-blocking reps, he didn’t allow a single pressure. He also showed his ability to open up holes in the running game.

Other teams probably don’t have a lot of film on Walker due to his unavailability this year so Green Bay could try to sneak him onto the practice squad after waiving him. However, he made the conversation more difficult and could make the roster depending on the health of David Bakhtiari and Elgton Jenkins.
