Rollins

Rollins was the No. 62 overall pick in the 2015 draft by the Packers. He was cut after suffering a hamstring injury in the preseason finale last year and didn’t appear in a game for anyone.

The Cardinals are taking some veteran fliers after waiving Bene Benwikere on Monday. Rollins made 10 starts for the Packers in 2016 but has made only six appearances since. Neither Rollins nor Johnson will be a viable solution opposite Patrick Peterson.

Rollins has worked out for the Eagles and Bears as well in recent weeks. The former second-round pick was sent packing by the Packers after suffering a hamstring injury in the last preseason game, but he appears to be healthy again. The Jets also worked out S Ibraheim Campbell on Tuesday.

Rollins injured the finger during the Packers’ first OTA of the spring. His bone came through the skin, requiring stitches. Rollins has been limited to individual work ever since and isn’t expected to be “full” until training camp. Rollins received strong marks from PFF for his coverage as a rookie across 368 snaps.

Last year’s second-rounder, Rollins missed most of the spring with a dislocated finger. Healthy now, he appears to be a bit ahead of 2015 first-rounder Damarious Randall for an every-down job. Randall has been working as the slot corner in sub-packages, replacing Casey Hayward. Both players will play plenty.

Green Bay will be without all three of its top cornerbacks against Atlanta, with Sam Shields (concussion) on I.R. and Damarious Randall recovering from groin surgery. Ladarius Gunter and Demetri Goodson will start against Julio Jones.

Rollins hasn’t played since Week 5 but appears to be on track for Sunday’s game against Indianapolis. The Packers could sure use a healthy body in the secondary with Sam Shields (concussion) on I.R. and Damarious Randall still working his way back from groin surgery.

Rollins spent Sunday night in a Detroit hospital, but evidently escaped with minor injury. “Everything’s progressing in a positive manner,” coach Mike McCarthy said. Rollins probably won’t be ready for the Wild Card round, but the Pack don’t seem ready to rule him out for the postseason. Rollins has been an every-snap player for the Packers’ supremely banged up secondary, so his absence is no minor matter.

He was immediately ruled out. It’s another blow to the Packers secondary. Rollins had to be carted off and looks doubtful for the first round of the playoffs.

ESPN’s Rob Demovsky believes it could be a sign he’s cleared the concussion protocol. Rollins’ return would be a big boost for the Packers’ banged up secondary.
