US EditionFormer Packers linebacker Kristian Welch signs up for 2nd stint in Green Bay
- On Friday, General Manager Brian Gutekunst and the Green Bay Packers announced the signing of 26-year-old linebacker Kristian Welch, who previously played for the team in 2023.
- Welch, an undrafted free agent from Iowa, initially joined the Packers' practice squad in 2023 before being elevated to the active roster in September.
- During the 2023 season with the Packers, Welch appeared in 12 regular-season games and two playoff matchups, contributing primarily on special teams where he had 210 reps and made six tackles.
- Prior to his time with the Packers, Welch played for the Baltimore Ravens from 2020-2022 and had brief stints with the Denver Broncos and the Baltimore Ravens last season, making one start for each of those teams and recovering a fumble for the Ravens.
- Welch's return to the Packers could help fill the void left by linebacker Eric Wilson, who signed with the Minnesota Vikings, as Welch has experience as a key member of special teams, having played in 72 career regular-season games and finishing fourth on the team in special-teams reps in 2023.
