Veteran free agent CB Quinton Dunbar visits Packers

The Packers hosted a free agent visit for veteran cornerback Quinton Dunbar.

The Green Bay Packers hosted veteran free agent cornerback Quinton Dunbar for a visit on Tuesday, per the league’s transaction wire.

Dunbar, an undrafted free agent out of Florida, has played in 64 career games since entering the NFL in 2015. He played his first five seasons in Washington, including his first two under current Packers defensive coordinator Joe Barry.

The Packers may need more veteran help at cornerback, especially if Kevin King (shoulder) is out for an extended period of time. All-Pro Jaire Alexander is already on injured reserve with a shoulder injury.

Over 64 career games, Dunbar has 40 pass breakups and 10 interceptions. He last played in the regular season with the Seattle Seahawks during the 2020 season, appearing in six games.

The Detroit Lions signed Dunbar to a one-year deal in April but released him in August. He was most recently on the practice squad of the Arizona Cardinals.

Dunbar (6-2, 197) produced a terrific season with Washington in 2019, delivering four interceptions and four pass breakups while allowing a passer rating of 56.9, per Pro Football Focus.

Over his entire career, Dunbar has allowed 12 touchdown passes and a passer rating of 84.7. He’s played the majority of his snaps on the perimeter during his NFL career.

The Packers recently signed Rasul Douglas off the practice squad of the Cardinals. The team also has rookies Eric Stokes and Shemar Jean-Charles and veteran Isaac Yiadom at cornerback.
