Christine Michael Cut by Seattle Seahawks Now Going To Green Bay Packers

Despite being a game out of first place, expectations run high in the Packers’ organization, and coach Mike McCarthy knows the unstable nature of the NFL.

What that means, of course, is this: Starks and newly acquired halfback Christine Michael are now the Packers’ saviors.

Jackson left Washington’s Week 8 game against the Cincinnati Bengals in London with an undisclosed injury. After the Cowboys cut him later that season, he was re-signed by the Seahawks. These two men have been tied at the hip since Rodgers took over for Brett Favre as the Packers’ starter back in 2008.

“The flight was the least of my worries”.

“I think there are sometimes where going down there and kicking field goals isn’t a bad thing in close games”, Gruden said Monday. We’ve got to get these guys in shape and ready to roll mentally and physically and go out there and compete.

Green Bay plays at Washington in a nationally televised game on Sunday Night Football.

The Packers aren’t used to being under.500 at midseason.

Michael returned to the Seahawks in December, rushing for 192 yards in three games.

The Green Bay Packers dropped their 3rd straight game to fall to 4-5 after being blown out by the Tennessee Titans by a final score of 47-25.

The Packers are playing three road games in a row for the first time since 2012 and only the third time in the last 19 seasons (also 1998).

The Packers hold a 18-13-1 record against the Redskins all-time in regular season matchups.

Yes, this is very unlike the Green Bay Packers. “Just because they’re having a whatever kind of year they’re calling it, they’re still a unsafe team”. “It’s hard to watch”, Matthews said.

“Dynamic football player. I love his running style”, McCarthy said.

Because of the early release, the Packers will only have to pay him about $280,000 for the rest of the season. Starting to resemble his old self more and more, he will need players like James Starks to carry the ball more, easing the pressure off the passing attack.

Redskins cornerback Josh Norman said don’t be fooled by those mediocre numbers.

“He’s played a lot of football. It’s part of the game”. The Seahawks surprisingly cut Michael despite him leading the team in rushing yards.

His availability was brought to McCarthy’s attention by GM Ted Thompson late during Wednesday’s practice, and McCarthy had already seen rookie RB Don Jackson go down with a knee injury.
