Interestingly enough, the Packers kept Isaac Yiadom, who arrived in Green Bay about two weeks ago via trade, over Kabion Ento, who just finished his third summer in Green Bay. Clearly, the Packers wanted to see more of Yiadom, and Ento didn’t do enough with his opportunity. Yiadom is more experienced, more physical and probably more trustworthy at this point. The Packers want to be playing important games deep into the season. It’s clear the team felt more comfortable with the idea of Yiadom being on the field for special teams and as a backup cornerback. Ento can cover, but potential only goes so far. It wouldn’t be all that surprising if the Packers keep looking for depth at cornerback, because Yiadom’s track record so far in the NFL isn’t great, even for a projected No. 5 corner.
