Packers place OLB Randy Ramsey on IR, sign CB Dominique Martin

The 2021 season is over for Green Bay Packers outside linebacker Randy Ramsey.

The team placed Ramsey on injured reserve and replaced him on the 90-man roster with cornerback Dominique Martin on Thursday.

Ramsey, who played in 12 games as a reserve linebacker and special teamer, injured his ankle last week. Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed it was a significant injury.

By going on injured reserve now, Ramsey will have no opportunity to return to the roster during the 2021 season.

The Packers will need to identify a player capable of being the fourth outside linebacker on the roster during the preseason. Tipa Galeai, Jonathan Garvin, Delontae Scott and Chauncey Rivers are the candidates currently.

Martin (5-10, 180) is a converted wide receiver. He played cornerback during his final season at Tarleton State in 2016 and then spent parts of the last four years playing football in Germany and in The Spring League.
