BRANDON SAINE RUMORS

Former Sleeper Pick, Brandon Saine, Waived By Packers

NFL News: The Green Bay Packers have waived former Buckeye, Brandon Saine. Saine went undrafted in 2011 and played in 8 games as a rookie. He ran 18 times for 69 yards while also catching 10 balls for 69 yards. It’s hard to believe that a running back needy team would let Saine go at this point but maybe this means they are making room for another? Possibly a guy like Ahmad...

Packers Running Backs: James Starks or Brandon Saine?

Could Packers RB Brandon Saine be on the team over James Starks in 2013? I just recorded a podcast on the Packers running backs with my colleagues Jason Perone and Marques Eversoll.

He...

Packers Training Camp Rewind: RB Brandon Saine

Packers RB Brandon Saine I could have easily titled this post “Brandon Saine: The New Brandon Jackson?” or “Brandon Saine Could Be Packers Third Down Back,” because that’s exactly what he’s shaping up to be. Though, in all fairness, I actually think he could be better than Jackson used to be. Saine was picked up by the Green Bay Packers in 2011 as an undrafted rookie...

One-on-One: Brandon Saine

Nick Lahman/Getty Images I am probably the driver of the “Green Bay Packers don’t need a running back” bandwagon.  So it may be funny that I took the time to talk with Brandon Saine this week at training camp.  The fact is the Packers will always have running backs, it’s just part of football. So why Saine?  I like his story.  It fits in line with numerous Packers on...
