  • Packers' Corey Ballentine: Season-high tackles in win

    Ballentine recorded 10 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 27-19 victory against the Chiefs.

With Jaire Alexander battling a shoulder injury over the last four weeks, the Packers have relied heavily on Ballentine in the secondary.

  • Packers' Corey Ballentine: Staying put in Green Bay

    The Packers re-signed Ballentine on Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Ballentine will return to Green Bay, where he spent time both on the active roster and practice squad this past year. Heading into the 2023 campaign, the 26-year-old could potentially find himself competing for a roster spot in what's become a crowded secondary. If he does make the team, the 2019 sixth-round pick will likely see most of his playing time on special teams, bringing value both in coverage and as a returner.
