Packers promote Ross, Goodson to new scouting roles

Brandian Ross and Demetri Goodson will take over new scouting roles for Packers GM Brian Gutekunst.

The Green Bay Packers promoted two of the team’s former defensive backs to new scouting roles within GM Brian Gutekunst’s player personnel department.

The team announced Brandian Ross will take over scouting duties in the southwest region while Demetri Goodson will replace Ross as the new midlands region scout.

Ross, a former undrafted free agent who played two seasons with the Packers, returned to Green Bay as a scouting intern in 2017. He has spent the last two years as the midlands region scout. Ross will replace Charles Walls as the new southwest scout after Walls left to take a new job in Cleveland.

Goodson, a sixth-round pick of the Packers in 2014, spent last season as a scouting intern. He will be a first-time college scout in 2020.

The Packers’ area scouts are now Ross, Goodson, Luke Benuska (west), Joe Hueber (midwest), Patrick Moore (southeast), Mike Owen (northeast) and Brett Thiesen.
