The Packers got underneath the salary cap Wednesday as required by league rules. It required some trimming.
The Packers cut receiver Randall Cobb‘s salary by about $5.5 million, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Cobb was due to make around $8.5 million.
The Packers brought Cobb back to town last season after Aaron Rodgers campaigned for a trade. Cobb played nine years for the Packers, one for the Cowboys and one for the Texans before returning to Green Bay in a trade with Houston.
He played 12 games, missing five after core muscle surgery, and caught 28 passes for 375 yards and five touchdowns in 2021.
Cobb’s only 1,000-yard season came in 2014 when he made his only Pro Bowl.
