The Green Bay Packers have made significant roster changes, waiving both seventh-round rookie quarterback Michael Pratt and sixth-round kicker Anders Carlson. Pratt completed 23 of 35 passes for 178 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during the preseason and may join the practice squad if he clears waivers. Carlson, who struggled with consistency throughout the 2023 season, missing more field goals and extra points than any other NFL kicker, was cut after failing to secure his position during a shaky training camp. Veteran kicker Greg Joseph is now expected to be the Packers' starting kicker for the upcoming season. Carlson's release, despite being a surprise to some fans, follows a pattern similar to his brother Daniel, who also struggled early in his career before finding success with the Las Vegas Raiders. The Packers' roster moves underscore their focus on improving performance and reliability in key positions.
