[Packers] Packers Release LB Tracy White

The Packers announced that veteran linebacker Tracy White was released today, and Danny Lansanah was signed from the practice squad to take White's place. "We appreciate everything Tracy has done for us," general manager Ted Thompson said this afternoon. "We just felt like Danny is a guy that we believe, based on the way he played in pre-season and the like, that he can add a little bit more juice to us. He's a guy that we want to have on our team." White was in his third season with the Packers after previously played for Seattle and Jacksonville. A free agent in the off-season, White spurned offers from Pittsburgh and Denver to re-sign with Green Bay.

Great ST player, not a great LB. Doesn't surprise me, he was the backup to AJ Hawk but was horrible in normal D, given Hawk's injury, I can see why.
