The Green Bay Packers have signed FBย Dan Vitale to their practice squad on Monday, according to Jim Owczarski.
Hereโs the Packers updated practice squad:
- LB Kendall Donnerson
- FB Joe Kerridge
- DL James Looney
- G/T Adam Pankey
- DB Will Redmond
- OT Anthony Coyle
- DL Deon Simon
- RB Tra Carson

- FB Dan Vitale
Vitale, 24, is a former sixth-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2016. He was waived a few months later and claimed by the Bills.
However, Vitale failed a physical for the Bills and cut loose a day later. He returned to Tampa Bay for another brief stint with the Buccaneers before the Browns signed him to their active roster during the 2016 season.
Cleveland brought Vitale back on an exclusive rights contract this past April but he was waived with an injury designation coming out of the preseason and he was later cut with an injuryย settlement.
In 2017, Vitale appeared in 15 games for the Browns and caught three passes for 19 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
