The Green Bay Packers released rookie undrafted free agent Rodney Mathews to clear a roster spot for former San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Spencer Waege, who was claimed off of waivers on Thursday, per Field Yates of ESPN.
Mathews, who went undrafted out of Ohio, signed following the draft and participated during the team’s rookie minicamp last week.
The churning of the roster wheel leaves no fringe player out of danger. An opportunity to add an intriguing player from the 2023 draft class meant a new addition’s time in Green Bay was short lived.
