Packers may deal backup tackle

The Green Bay Packers traded one former tight end turned tackle at the final cut last year and probably will have chances to deal another Saturday. A source said several teams are interested in tackle Breno Giacomini, one of four veteran offensive linemen the Packers might be considering releasing on the roster reduction. All teams must reach the 53-man limit by 3 p.m. Saturday. The Packers have 75 players on the roster. Giacomini, a fifth-round draft choice in 2008, played tight end early in his career at Louisville just as Tony Moll, a fifth-round pick in 2006, did at Nevada. The Packers shipped Moll to Baltimore Sept. 5 for safety Derrick Martin. “We don’t even joke around about that stuff,” center Jason Spitz said. “Obviously, we all want to be here. We’re all working toward that. But it won’t work out that way.” — Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
