Third-year running back DeShawn Wynn's career has been a circuitous one, but he is hoping that some changes he made this offseason will help him as he looks to solidify a role in the Packers' backfield in 2009.
After leading the team in rushing in the first six games in 2007, Wynn battled various injuries that ended his rookie campaign and then contributed to his release last year in training camp.
Wynn did get another chance with the Packers when he was signed to Green Bay's practice squad less than a week after he was let go. He was eventually signed back to the active roster in Week 6, and then finished off the year with a career-best performance vs. Detroit, rushing for 106 yards, including a 73-yard touchdown run.
Now Wynn has carried that strong play over to the first few days of training camp.
"I'm very, very impressed with DeShawn Wynn," Head Coach Mike McCarthy said. "I think he's having an outstanding training camp so far."
