December 26, 2008 Packers.com reports that running back DeShawn Wynn will play a bigger role in the Packers' Week 17 matchup with the Lions.
Our View:Wynn is in his second season and the Packers like what they have seen. However, he's been buried on the depth chart behind Ryan Grant and Brandon Jackson. Jackson is out this week due to a sprained wrist.
November 28, 2008 DeShawn Wynn missed practice yet again on Friday meaning that he missed practice all week due to a calf injury, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette. He is being listed as doubtful for the matchup with Carolina.
Our View:Wynn almost certainly won't play leaving the ball in the hands of Ryan Grant and Brandon Jackson. It's not like this is a big loss anyway as Wynn hasn't posted a single carry this season.
November 9, 2008 Packers inactives: QB Brian Brohm (3rd), CB Pat Lee, RB DeShawn Wynn, LB Brandon Chillar, DE Jason Hunter, LB Danny Lansanah, OT Breno Giacomini, OG Allen Barbre.
Our View:Aaron Rodgers (shoulder) and cornerback Charles Woodson (toe) are both active and will start.
October 11, 2008 Running back DeShawn Wynn was signed by the Green Bay Packers off of their practice squad due to the season-ending injury to Kregg Lumpkin, according to ProFootballTalk.com.
Our View:Wynn was noteworthy in fantasy leagues for a very short time last year early on, but disappeared after Ryan Grant came alive. Since Grant still lives, expect little from Wynn unless more injuries occur.
August 31, 2008 Running back DeShawn Wynn was signed to the practice squad after he was cut by the team earlier in the week, according to Packers.com. Also signed to the practice squad were wide receiver Jake Allen, center Brennen Carvalho, tight end Joey Haynos, linebacker Danny Lansanah, defensive tackle Alfred Malone, cornerback Joe Porter and wide receiver Brett Swain.
Our View:Wynn made a very brief appearance on fantasy radars with a solid performance last season early in the year, but the emergence of Ryan Grant shuttled him to the background.
