Packers place 2 on PUP list, 2 others on non-football injury list

Curtis Bolton and Yosh Nijman both landed on the PUP list to start Packers training camp.

The Green Bay Packers provided injury designations for four different players on Friday.

According to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Packers placed linebacker Curtis Bolton and offensive tackle Yosh Nijman on the physically unable to perform list and added guard Simon Stepaniak and running back Patrick Taylor on the non-football injury list.

Bolton tore his ACL during the preseason last August. Nijman injured his elbow and was placed on season-ending injured reserve last December. Both will begin training camp on the PUP list but can come off and participate at any time. They will each have a chance to make the roster, with Bolton competing for starting snaps at linebacker and Nijman battling for a spot as the swing tackle.

The non-football injury list is for designating players hurt during the college season or offseason. Stepaniak, a sixth-round pick, and Taylor, an undrafted free agent, both landed in this category.

The Packers also released Cole Madison and Jordan Jones on Friday.
