Stokes continues to rehab from foot and knee injuries that limited him to only nine games in 2022. His placement on PUP means he’ll have to sit out at least the first four games before being eligible for activation. The 2021 first-round pick has started 23 of his 25 appearances for the Packers, collecting 81 tackles, 14 passes defended, and one interception.
Meanwhile, Moore won’t be eligible to play for the Packers in 2023 after getting placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. Moore joined the Packers this offseason after spending the first five seasons of his career with the 49ers. He sat out the entire 2021 campaign but otherwise appeared in 61 games across four healthy seasons with San Francisco, collecting 108 tackles.
Minor NFL Transactions: 5/8/23
Here are Monday’s minor moves:
Baltimore Ravens
- Signed: S Jaquan Amos
- Waived: DE Levi Bell
Chicago Bears
- Waived: OL Nick Amoah, DB Justin Broiles, TE Damien Caffrey
Green Bay Packers
- Signed: LS Broughton Hatcher, DL Antonio Moultrie
- Waived: LS Jack Coco
Indianapolis Colts
- Signed: WR Tyler Adams, WR Kody Case, T Matthew Vanderslice, DT Jamal Woods
- Waived: WR Cody Chrest, CB Tyler Richardson, RB Titus Swen, WR Braxton Westfield
New York Giants
- Reverted to PUP list: S Terrell Burgess
Philadelphia Eagles
- Waived: S Andre Chachere
Hatcher and Moultrie join cornerback William Hooper in landing Packers deals after the team’s rookie minicamp. Despite the Packers cutting Coco, Hatcher still has competition to become Green Bay’s long snapper. Matt Orzech, who spent the past two years as the Rams’ deep snapper, remains the favorite for the Packer gig after receiving a $300K signing bonus this offseason, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com tweets. Orzech had been on Green Bay’s radar for years; the team tried to claim him off waivers in 2021.
