GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Cornerback Corey
Ballentine has returned to the Green Bay Packers three days
after the Indianapolis Colts released him.
The Packers announced Monday they had signed Ballentine, who had
played for them from 2022-24. They made room for him by
releasing cornerback Gregory Junior.
Ballentine played 37 regular-season games and three playoff
games for the Packers over the past three seasons. He made seven
starts during that stretch.
The Colts signed Ballentine in March but released him Friday
when they signed cornerback Chris Lammons.
Ballentine, 29, played 15 games last season while contributing
primarily on special teams. He started six games in 2023 and had
43 tackles and seven passes defensed, both career highs.
He also has played for the New York Giants (2019-20), New York
Jets (2020) and Detroit Lions (2021).
Junior, 26, played with the Jacksonville Jaguars for one game in
2022 and nine in 2023.
