Dolphins sign two former Packers to practice squad, widening their Green Bay pipeline
The Miami Dolphins added two ex-Packers to their practice squad: wide receiver Will Sheppard, who starred in Green Bay’s 2026 preseason (9 receptions, 73 yards, 2 TDs including a punt return TD) but didn’t make the 53-man roster, and cornerback Jaylin Simpson, a 2024 fifth-round pick who spent most of 2025 on the Packers’ practice squad and had 8 tackles in the 2026 preseason. The moves continue a Packers-to-Dolphins pipeline under Dolphins personnel and coaching staff with Green Bay ties.
