Corey Ballentine is back with the Green Bay Packers after the team signed the cornerback from their practice squad..
Ballentine is a five-year veteran who appeared in four games with the Detroit Lions in 2021.. The journeyman cornerback also saw work returning kicks while in Detroit.. He’s been with the Packers for the two years since..
The 27-year-old also spent time with the New York Giants and New York Jets..
Ballentine appeared in three games this year, including a record 50 defensive reps against the Lions on Thursday Night Football..
Back in these parts, the Lions are dealing with injuries to the secondary.. Offseason additions Emmanuel Moseley (ACL) and C.J.. Gardner-Johnson (chest laceration) is not applicable.. And cornerback Jerry Jacobs (knee) missed last week’s game..
Cam Sutton is a solid addition to the top cornerback position.. But the Lions could be looking to bolster their roster ahead of next week’s trade deadline, which is one of the main topics of this week’s MLive’s Dungeon of Doom podcast episode..
