The Green Bay Packers are off to a good start so far in 2024. Through six games they’re 4-2 and right in the middle of things when it comes to the race in the NFC North. This week Green Bay will try to move to 5-2 when they welcome the 5-1 Texans to Lambeau Field.
Prior to that matchup, Green Bay added a speedster to their offense.

Malik Knowles and Spencer Rolland have been signed to the Packers’ practice squad. Earlier this week, the Patriots signed center Lecitus Smith to their 53-man roster. Rolland will fill the void left by Smith.
Knowles (6-foot-2, 196 pounds) was a two-time All-America at Kansas State. In 2021, he made it as a returner, when he averaged 33.1 yards per kickoff return and ranked second in the nation with two kickoff-return touchdowns. In 2022, he made it as an all-purpose player after catching 48 passes for 725 yards and two touchdowns while averaging 25.7 yards per kickoff return.
He went undrafted in 2023 and signed with the Minnesota Vikings. He spent last season on the reserve/non-football injury list due to a knee injury and was cut at the end of training camp this summer after catching one pass for 1 yard and returning two kickoffs for a total of 43 yards.
Luther takes the practice-squad spot of first-year player TJ Luther, who was placed on practice squad injured reserve due to a hamstring injury.
