The Packers have added a wide receiver to the roster for the second time in as many days. They announced that they have claimed Chris Hilton off of waivers. They signed Kisean Johnson as a free agent on Sunday. Hilton signed with the Commanders after going undrafted this year and was waived over the weekend. He spent the last five years at LSU and had 41 catches for 780 yards during his time in Baton Rouge. Hilton and Johnson join Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Jayden Reed, Savion Williams, Skyy Moore, Bo Melton, Will Sheppard, Isaiah Neyor, Kaden Prather, and J.

The Packers signed long snapper Cal Adomitis and wide receiver Kaden Prather on Friday, the team announced. Prather’s agreement was previously reported. In corresponding moves, the Packers released kicker Lenny Krieg and waived/injured wide receiver Brenden Rice. Adomitis is a fifth-year player from the University of Pittsburgh who originally signed as an undrafted free agent with the Bengals in 2022. He played 49 regular-season games and three postseason contests in three seasons in Cincinnati. He was released toward the end of training camp last season. Adomitis ended up playing nine games for the Eagles last season before finishing the season on the Steelers’ practice squad. Prather entered the NFL as a seventh-round pick of the Bills in 2025 but was waived/injured at the end of training camp. He helped the Louisville Kings win the UFL championship this spring. Krieg was signed earlier this week to compete with sixth-round pick Trey Smack for the kicking job. Rice, who was claimed off waivers from the Raiders in May, was on the non-football injury list. The son of Hall of Famer Jerry Rice joined Las Vegas’ practice squad late last season after also spending time on the practice squads of the Seahawks and Patriots. He was with the Chargers in training camp last summer
