The Packers liked offensive tackle Jason Spriggs enough that they moved up in the second round of the draft to take him. Now they have him under contract.
Green Bay announced today that Spriggs has signed his rookie contract. Terms weren’t disclosed, but the Collective Bargaining Agreement calls for the player drafted 48th to make about $5 million on a four-year deal.
Spriggs probably won’t start this year, with incumbent starters David Bakhtiari and Bryan Bulaga around, but he could eventually be the left tackle responsible for protecting Aaron Rodgers.
The Packers also signed TE Casey Pierce, DT Demetris Anderson, RB Brandon Burks, FB Alstevis Squirewell and G Cory Tucker. Green Bay released DT Josh Boyd, DT William Campbell, TE David Grinnage, WR Dennis Parks and T Jeremy Vujnovich.
