One of the best and most crucial members of the Vince Lombardi championship teams from that era passed away a few days ago. Forrest Gregg, the team’s stalwart right tackle for over a decade, dealt with Parkinson’s Disease for many years and has passed at the age of 85.Gregg was every bit as important to those championship teams as anyone else, and his impact can be felt best by hearing what his teammates have to say about him. And while some of those teammates had to wait years before getting the call to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Gregg’s career put him there in his first year of eligibility.While we remember a legend, Packers fans also are looking ahead to the 2019 season. So too is new head coach Matt LaFleur, who finally weighed in for the first time on the recent drama surrounding his team, his quarterback, and his predecessor. If LaFleur is worried about any of that, he certainly isn’t showing it and he certainly won’t say so. Instead, he’s saying exactly what one would expect: that he’s focused on his own relationship with Aaron Rodgers rather than worrying at all about what happened in the past.Packers great Forrest Gregg dies at 85 | Packers.comGregg, the Hall of Fame right tackle for Vince Lombardi's teams in the 1960s Jason Spriggs Jersey , passed away on Friday.

Jawill Davis is the latest casualty, as the team announced that they have released the wide receiver and return specialist.Davis appeared in Thursday’s preseason opener against the Houston Texans, contributing his only stats as a return man. He finished the game with a single kickoff return for 24 yards, suiting up for seven snaps on offense and three on special teams. Davis rotated with Teo Redding on kickoff returns, his primary position a year ago for the New York Giants.Packersnews.com’s Tom Silverstein speculates that the team is interested in adding a fullback as Davis’ replacement on the 90-man roster.Davis’ departure does leave a bit of a hole in the return game for the Packers, particularly when combined with Corey Grant’s release earlier this week. Trevor Davis was injured in practice last and did not play on Thursday nor did he practice on Saturday. That leaves first-year pro Redding and undrafted rookie Darrius Shepherd as the most likely contributors on returns for the time being. Shepherd in particular had a good game on Thursday, hauling in a 14-yard touchdown from DeShone Kizer.
