The Green Bay Packers have placed receiver and return man from laiyongcai92's blog

 Trevor Davis on injured reserve Youth Calvin Ridley Jersey , and claimed cornerback Deante Burton off waivers from the Atlanta Falcons.Davis missed the season opener against Chicago after adding him to the injury report just a couple of hours before the game on Sunday. The third-year player and primary returner also missed much of training camp with a sore hamstring."When Trevor showed up at the stadium, his hamstring was really bothering him — more than I think even he expected," coach Mike McCarthy said Monday. "So we took him out on Lambeau (Field) and we had a pregame workout and he wasn't ready to go."Davis' absence also means more potential opportunities on offense for Green Bay's three drafted rookie receivers behind the top trio of Davante Adams, Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison.Burton played on defense and special teams in the Falcons' season-opening loss to Philadelphia. He started the first week on the practice squad before being promoted to the active roster.Atlanta moved Burton from receiver to the secondary after signing him as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Kansas State in May 2017. He spent his entire rookie season on the practice squad.The Packers on Tuesday also released safety Marwin Evans from the practice squad, replacing him with cornerback Will Redmond. A third-year player Black De'Vondre Campbell Jersey , Redmond most recently was released by the Kansas City Chiefs before the start of the season.Falcons injury update: Julio Jones, Takk McKinley back at practice, Derrick Shelby again out UPDATE: Well, DE Takk McKinley would up being ruled out despite returning to practice. The Falcons are slowly but surely getting healthier after Sunday’s new rash of injuries.Jason Butt with The Athletic was on hand for Friday’s practice and noted that two important figures are back in action. We all kind of figured WR Julio Jones would be good to go for Sunday’s tilt versus the Saints, but it’s reassuring to see he’s back out there. DE Takkarist McKinley out with his helmet on is an encouraging sight after he injured his groin against Carolina. The team still might limit his snaps Sunday to make sure he doesn’t aggravate anything Youth Matt Ryan Jersey , but this is a sure sign he’s at least going to be active this week and will get some snaps. Though, there’s another defensive end who doesn’t look like he’s going to play. DE Derrick Shelby not practicing Friday gives a sure signal he’s most likely not going to play this week, which means recently-acquired DE Steven Means will most likely take his snaps. We’ll see how Means does, a preseason favorite who some believe has untapped potential. Reserve LB Corey Nelson, who got injured at practice this week Youth Keanu Neal Jersey , also look unlikely to play, which leaves the team a bit thin at linebacker. It’s more than likely the team will just try to ride with what they’ve got. LB Richard Jarvis is around if they need him, though. We all knew about RB Devonta Freeman missing this week, too, so here’s hoping the dual-attack of Tevin Coleman and Ito Smith can continue to shine. As for the Saints Youth Julio Jones Jersey , DT Tyeler Davison is not expected to play after the team signed DT Jay Bromley this week. LB Manti Te’o was also out Thursday. A few other notable names were limited.
