GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Seventeen-year veteran center Frank Winters was among eight players the Green Bay Packers waived Sunday.
Also waived were veteran running back Lamar Smith; running back Herbert ``Whisper'' Goodman; offensive linemen Bill Ferrario and David Brandt; defensive tackle Steve Martin; linebacker Steve Josue; and safety Scott McGarrahan.
Rookie wide receiver Carl Ford, a seventh-round draft choice from Toledo who was hurt in Thursday's preseason game against Tennessee, was placed on injured reserve. Josue was also a seventh-round selection in this year's draft, out of Carson-Newman.
Winters joined the Packers as a free agent in 1992 and ranked fifth among active NFL players in games played, 231. He played in all 16 games in 2002 after injury forced out Mike Flanagan.
