It’s not very often that you see the Packers part company with one of those picks once they make the team.

McMillian played 77 snaps in the season opener against San Francisco with starter Morgan Burnett sidelined.  But Burnett’s return saw McMillian’s playing time decrease.  He eventually made too many coverage mistakes which led to his playing time being almost completely eliminated, with the exception of special teams.

The Packers signed Bell after they placed rookie Johnathan Franklin (neck injury) on injured reserve.

Green Bay Packers safety Jerron McMillian said he didn’t try to hurt NY Giants tight end Marcellus Bennett on Sunday night.

The NFL doesn’t agree though.  The league fined McMillian $21,500 for his hit.
