Packers release LB Morrison

March 9, 2019 By Bill Scott

The Green Bay Packers have released LB Antonio Morrison on Friday.

Morrison, who was acquired by the Packers in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts in August 2018, played in all 16 games with eight starts last season and posted 42 tackles (28 solo), four tackles for loss, a sack, two QB pressures and a QB hit while adding four tackles on special teams.

Morrison was originally selected by the Colts in the fourth round (No. 125 overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft out of the University of Florida.

In two seasons with the Colts, Morrison played in 31 games with 19 starts and registered 154 tackles (91 solo), six tackles for loss and a pass defensed.

Burks sidelined, Packers deal for some help

Linebacker Oren Burks

Green Bay Packers rookie linebacker Oren Burks suffered a dislocated shoulder during pre-game warm-ups on Friday in Oakland.

Packers head coach Mike McCarthy said the MRI results were encouraging and they don’t expect Burks to miss too much time.  Whether or not he can recover in time for the season opener September 9th against the Bears remains to be seen.

Sunday, the Packers added some depth at inside linebacker when they dealt backup defensive back Lenzy Pipkens to the Indianapolis Colts for linebacker Antonio Morrison.  Morrison was a 4th round draft pick by the Colts in the 2016 draft.  He started 15 games for the Colts last season.

In Pipkens, the Packers traded a player that wasn’t expected to win a roster spot.  Morrison was facing the same possibility with Indianapolis.

Pipkens appeared in 12 games for the Packers last season.
