Mike Tyson

Tyson was placed on injured reserve last week due to an undisclosed injury but the Packers ultimately decided to part ways with the third-year pro. If he can prove he is healthy, Tyson could try to sign on with another squad at some point this season.

The nature of Tyson's injury remains unclear. In any case, the third-year pro will remain on IR for the 2019 season barring an injury settlement. The 26-year-old will turn his attention toward getting fully healthy.

Tyson's injury is unclear in both nature and severity, although Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel notes that the 26-year-old was "dinged up" in the Packers' preseason game against Oakland on Thursday. Tyson was originally claimed off waivers by the Packers in mid-May, but now will have to focus on getting healthy and finding another opportunity.

Tyson was waived by Houston last week to help clear the way for a number of other signings, but he won't hit the open market just yet after being claimed by Green Bay. Tyson's best chance of making the final roster will likely be as a special teams performer.
