OT Jared Veldheer, who started for the Colts' on Saturday, is now signing with the Packers, per source.
Veldheer will be the first player in NFL history to play two postseason games for two playoff teams. He is allowed to sign with GB because he was on the Colts' practice squad.

I suppose that makes sense.
Bell was released and out of protocol for some time so he had to wait.
I don't recall the particulars. I feel like he was released and signed with us pretty much immediately but there was a gap. [Reply]

He pulled a David Boston and way over trained. Got muscle bound and put a ton of strain on his body in the process. Was never able to stay consistently healthy after he left Oakland. [Reply]

Exactly what I said a couple of days ago. Seems like a faulty assumption when a player changes teams considering what we've seen from several teams and their outbreaks. [Reply]
