Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel mentions that the Green Bay Packers have told RB Ryan Grant “they have an interest in bringing him back.”
The Packers haven’t shown a lot of interest in retaining Grant up until this point, but they’ve yet to address the running back position so far, which leaves the door open for a possible return.
Grant visited with the Patriots yesterday, but they also brought in a number of other veteran backs like Tim Hightower and Joseph Addai.
Ted Thompson shown a lot of loyalty to his guys in recent years, which was evident by the large deal he gave to A.J. Hawk last year when he probably wouldn’t have secured a contract anywhere near that on the open market. The Packers have plenty of draft picks to work with this year, so there’s still a good chance that they could end up drafting someone in the coming days.
We have the Packers taking Washington RB Chris Polk in the second-round of our recently updated 2012 NFL Mock Draft.
