'Eager and confident,' Juwann Winfree knows what Packers' receiver competition will require Developing prospect at crowded position can’t get thrown off course again

JUNE 3, 2022 • PACKERS.COM

Joins the fray in 2021 Winfree was targeted 13 times and caught eight passes for 58 yards over seven appearances in the 2021 season.

Impact Winfree spent the majority of the season on the Packers' practice squad, but he did record his first career reception in his third professional season. He has now spent the balance of two seasons in Green Bay, and it seems more likely than not that he will return for a third go-around.

Signs with active roster Winfree was signed to the Packers' active roster Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

Impact Winfree has appeared in three games for the Packers this season, recording four catches on six targets for 30 yards, all of which occurred in a Week 8 win over the Cardinals. With Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) and Malik Taylor (abdomen) both uncertain for Sunday against the Ravens, Winfree should help provide depth in the Packers' wide receiver ranks.

Back to practice squad Winfree has reverted back to the Packers' practice squad per the NFL's transaction report.

Impact Winfree was elevated to Green Bay's active roster prior to its Week 11 loss to the Vikings. He was brought up to provide depth at receiver due to Allen Lazard (shoulder) and Malik Taylor (abdomen) being sidelined. While he did see the field for six offensive plays and one special teams snap, he did not record any statistics.

Joins active roster Winfree was elevated from the Packers' practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Impact Since Allen Lazard (shoulder) is doubtful and Malik Taylor (abdomen) is unavailable for Sunday's matchup, Winfree will be added to the active roster. Across two appearances this season, the 2019 sixth-rounder has hauled in four of six targets for 30 yards.

Sees extended action in win Winfree was targeted six times and caught four passes for 30 yards in Thursday's 24-21 victory over the Cardinals.

Impact Winfree played all of two snaps over the first seven weeks of the season, but he somewhat surprisingly was heavily involved in the game plan Thursday with the Packers down their top three wide receivers. In fact, he was on the field for 54 of the 73 plays his offense ran, which trailed only Equanimeous St. Brown among Packers pass catchers. Winfree did not have a breakout game by any means, but he did have a chance to score a time or two, and that would have changed the conversation. Winfree is on the fantasy radar moving forward, but he could have a tough time seeing snaps when the Packers' receiver room is full again.

Elevated from practice squad Winfree was elevated from the Packers' practice squad Thursday.

Impact Winfree will provide extra depth at wide receiver against the Cardinals on Thursday since Davante Adams (illness) and Allen Lazard (undisclosed) are on the reserve/COVID-19 list, while Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) remains on injured reserve. Winfree appeared in the Packers' Week 6 matchup against Chicago and played just two offensive snaps.

Expected to be elevated for Week 8 Winfree is expected to be elevated from the Packers' practice squad for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact The Packers will be down their top three wideouts Thursday night, and it appears they will bring up Winfree to bolster the receiving crew. Winfree has played just two snaps for the Packers this season, but he showed some flashes over the offseason, and there's at least a chance he could be involved in the game plan.

Returns to practice squad Winfree reverted to Green Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Winfree earned himself two snaps on offense in Week 6 against the Bears. It marked the first time this year that he's found his way onto the field.

Back on Green Bay's roster Winfree was elevated to the active roster Saturday.

Impact It appears Winfree will be replacing Malik Taylor, who was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday. Winfree had an up-and-down training camp that came to an abrupt end due to a preseason shoulder injury, but the 25-year-old is back and healthy. Winfree has played in five games over the past two seasons, exclusively on special teams.

OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped by Green Bay Winfree was waived by the Packers on Tuesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Winfree flashed at times during offseason activities, but a shoulder injury prevented him from seeing any preseason action and ultimately cost him a shot to make a real run at a roster spot. Given what he showed, though, chances are he will snag a spot on the practice squad unless he is claimed by another team.

Expected to compete for role Winfree has impressed during OTAs and minicamp, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Winfree, a 2019 sixth-round pick by the Broncos, has suited up for just five career games. However, he has stood out during OTAs and looks like he has the potential to earn a roster spot. Green Bay's receiving depth chart is pretty set through the first four, but there is room to earn a role after that.

Inks futures deal with Green Bay Winfree signed a reserve/future contract with the Packers on Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 24-year-old was elevated to the active roster for two games this season but spent most of the season on the practice squad. Winfree is set to go through Green Bay's offseason program.

Slides back to practice squad Winfree reverted to Green Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Green Bay found itself in a pinch, with injuries pressing its capacity at the receiver position throughout the week. However, Equanimeous St. Brown's activation from a concussion mitigated any kind of minor offensive role for Winfree. The Colorado product closed out the Week 14 win over Detroit with just one offensive snap, compared to 11 with the special-teams unit.

DECEMBER 15, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Elevates to active roster The Packers elevated Winfree to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Winfree's being called up due to concerns about the Packers' receiver depth, as Equanimeous St. Brown (concussion) and Malik Taylor (hamstring) are both questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions. Winfree was also elevated in Week 10 against the Jaguars, but he didn't receive a target over seven snaps on offense.

Bumped back to practice squad Winfree reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Winfree garnered seven snaps on the offensive side and 10 more on special teams during a 24-20 win over the Jaguars on Sunday, providing the second-year man out of Colorado with his first game appearance of 2020. A sixth-round pick of Denver in last April's draft, Winfree could be activated again for a Week 11 matchup against the Colts if Darrius Shepherd (shoulder) and Allen Lazard (abdomen) prove unable to go at the receiver position.
