Green Bay Packers News

Brkic was waived from injured reserve by the Packers with an injury settlement at the end of September, but he appears to have cleared the hamstring issue and is looking for the next step in his career. The undrafted kicker out of Oklahoma spent time with the Vikings and Packers during his first professional season, but he's still looking to make his NFL debut.

Ahmed competed for a roster spot with Green Bay this preseason before getting waived as part of the team's final cuts. Ahmed then signed up with the team's practice squad ahead of the regular season, and he was elevated for two games to handle kickoffs in place of aging starting kicker Mason Crosby. However, Ahmed picked up a groin injury during his second elevation for the Week 17 win over Minnesota, leaving him inactive for the season-ending loss to Detroit the following game. Ahmed will now look to log the first field-goal attempt of his career heading into the 2023 regular season.
