Packers entlassen McManus und setzen Rookie Smack als Kicker ein

8. Mai 2026

Von KI berichtet

Die Green Bay Packers haben den erfahrenen Kicker Brandon McManus am Freitag entlassen, um den Weg für den Sechstrunden-Rookie Trey Smack frei zu machen, der die Position ab sofort übernehmen wird.

Green Bay gab zwei Siebtrunden-Picks an die Seattle Seahawks ab, um Smack an Position 216 im NFL Draft 2026 auszuwählen. Dieser Schritt erfolgte, nachdem McManus 2025 Schwierigkeiten hatte und nur 24 von 30 Field-Goal-Versuchen verwandelte, nachdem er in der Saison 2024 noch 20 von 21 Versuchen erfolgreich abgeschlossen hatte. Seine Zeit in Green Bay endete mit einer schwachen Leistung bei der Wild-Card-Niederlage gegen die Chicago Bears, bei der er zwei Field Goals und einen Extrapunkt vergab.
