The Green Bay Packers have signed wide receiver Devin Funchess as he tries to bounce back from an injury-shortened 2019 season. Funchess played for the Indianapolis Colts last year but went on injured reserve after breaking his collarbone in a season-opening 30-24 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

    Last offseason, the Green Bay Packers made headlines all over the country, as they usually do.  To be specific, the Packers made headlines by not taking a wide receiver in last year’s draft.  Instead, they took Jordan Love, quarterback out of Utah State.  One of the reasons why the Packers did not feel the need to take a wide receiver was because they had landed free agent wide receiver Devin Funchess.  However, due to the COVID 19 pandemic, Funchess opted out of the season.

    With the Packers needing to shed salaries in order to get under the cap, Funchess did his part, taking a pay cut in order to remain with the Packers in 2021.

    A couple of players reworked their deals to stick for 2021:
    — #Bills C Mitch Morse cut his salary by nearly $2M to stay in Buffalo, source said.
    — #Packers WR Devin Funchess took a roughly $750K paycut to stick in Green Bay after opting out last year, source said.

    — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 9, 2021

    Funchess was scheduled to make $2.5 million with a base salary of $1.2 million.  In other words, in order to stay with the Packers, Funchess is playing for at or just above the vet minimum.
