Packers' Kristian Welch: Staying in Green Bay

The Packers re-signed Welch on Thursday.

Welch began last season on the Packers' practice squad, but he became an integral part of Green Bay's special-teams unit as the year progressed. The 25-year-old linebacker appeared in 12 games in 2023, playing a total of 210 special-teams snaps and recording six total tackles. Welch is expected to compete for a similar role this offseason.
