The Packer added their veteran in two days Wednesday afternoon by claiming nose tackle Howard Green off waivers from the New York Jets. Green will join the trio of linebackers the Packers also acquired as they desperately try to rebuild their depth following a spate of injuries.

The Packers' motto for this season needs to be "Next man up." Either that or, "Mercy."
