GREEN BAY, Wis. (NBC 26) — Punter JK Scott, WR Equanimeous St. Brown, Green Bay native Cole Van Lanen and quarterback Kurt Benkert were among the biggest names released by the Packers Tuesday as the team cut down to the 53-man roster limit.

The Packers reportedly traded for punter Corey Bojorquez to take Scott's place on the roster. The roster currently stands at 52 players; Bojorquez will be the 53rd when the trade becomes official.

Van Lanen and Benkert could rejoin the team on the practice squad when that is finalized on Wednesday.

David Bakhtiari and Jace Sternberger are not on the roster but are still with the team. Bakhtiari will miss at least the first six games after being placed on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. Sternberger is suspended for the first two games.

Here is a look at the Packers roster as it stands as of Tuesday evening at 7:00 p.m.
