The Packers waived Molson on Friday.
Molson spent the entire 2021 season on the Packers' practice squad as an emergency option behind Mason Crosby and signed a reserve/future deal this offseason. However, the UCLA product has been let go in favor of Dominik Eberle, who Green Bay signed at the end of February. Crosby is expected to resume his usual role in 2022 for the time being, but after a poor campaign last year, he isn't guaranteed to stick around.
