The Green Bay Packers are promoting DT Billy Winn to their active roster on Saturday with DT Kenny Clark dealing with a groin injury, according to his agent Murphy McGuire.
The Packers confirmed the news and announced that they’ve also signed TE John Lovett and WR Darrius Shepherd to the active roster.
Winn, 31, is a former sixth-round pick of the Browns back in 2012 out of Boise State. He signed a four-year rookie deal through the 2015 season.
At the start of 2015, Winn was traded by the Browns to the Colts for a conditional seventh-round pick. From there, he signed on with the Broncos the following year and returned to Denver in 2019 on a one-year deal.
The Broncos placed Winn on injured reserve last year with a triceps injury and opted to cut him loose this past March. He signed on to the Packers’ practice squad a few weeks ago.
In 2016, Winn appeared in 16 games for the Broncos, recording 19 total tackles, one tackle for loss and one fumble recovery.
