The Packers released linebacker Jamon Johnson, cornerback Tyron Herring and tight end McCallan Castles on April 17.
Their departures leave the Packers’ offseason roster at 72 players, 18 short of maximum. They currently have eight picks in next week’s draft, starting with the 52nd overall in the second round.
The team will fill most, if not all, of their remaining spots with undrafted rookies after the draft. All three released players were on the Packers’ practice squad last season.
Johnson appeared in two games, including all 67 defensive snaps in the Packers’ regular-season finale at Minnesota. He had 10 tackles and one defended pass against the Vikings.
Herring and Castles did not appear in a game.
