The Packers are on the free agency board.
The team announced on Wednesday afternoon that they have signed long snapper Joe Fortunato.
Originally signed by the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent in 2017, Fortunato is 6-4, 240-pounder out of the University of Delaware. He also spent some time with the Dallas Cowboys during the 2020 offseason. The former walk-on for the Blue Hens became a four-year letterwinner (2012-15), playing in 46 contests. He served as the snapper on punts for four seasons and the snapper on placements for his final two years.

Soooooo, a long snapper undrafted FA same year H Bradley was drafted by the Packers... that didn't even last with the colts for 3 years and cut... then didn't even make it to camp with the Cowboys last off season.... Should be a great competition between two mediocre to bad long snappers....

Actually I thought that Bradley was a problem and was erratic with his snaps. Competition is good.
