Packers defender 'shouldn’t be on roster' after trade deadline

There certainly will be plenty of moves across the National Football League over the next few weeks.

There has been a flurry of moves each week of the season so far. Teams update their active rosters and practice squads on an ongoing basis, and this leads to plenty of signings and cuts each week. That number likely will increase even higher over the next few weeks, though.

The 2024 National Football League trade deadline will come and pass on Nov. 5. This will lead to plenty of trades but also cuts as teams look to free up roster space. FanSided's Zach Pressnell put together a list of three players who "shouldn’t be on the roster" for the Green Bay Packers after the trade deadline, whether through a deal or cut and mentioned defensive tackle Colby Wooden.

"Defensive line depth is crucial to any team that's looking to compete down the stretch, especially in a cold state like Wisconsin," Pressnell said. "The Packers will likely end up in some run-heavy snow games down the stretch where their interior defensive line will be tested. As of now, they have an interior defensive line room of TJ Slaton, Kenny Clark, Karl Brooks, and Colby Wooden, as 2024 draft pick Devonte Wyatt sits on the sidelines with a recent lower leg injury...

"In all likelihood, the Packers will swap Wooden out for additional nose tackle depth to help their run defense down the stretch. I don't see many different scenarios where he remains on the roster past the trade deadline."

There certainly will be plenty of movement across the league over the next few weeks, and Wooden will be someone to watch for. He is a second-year defensive lineman for the Packers. He appeared in all 17 games as a rookie last year but has seen time in just one game so far this season.
