The Green Bay Packers Friday signed non-drafted free agent Steve Fleming. Ted Thompson, Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations, announced the addition to the roster.
A 6-foot-6, 262-pound tight end out of Arizona, Fleming spent one week earlier this spring with the New York Giants.
Fleming as a senior last fall at Arizona caught 23 passes, second on the squad, for 332 yards, a 14.4 per-catch average, with two touchdowns. A four-year letterman and two-year starter, he posted 50 career receptions for 584 yards and four touchdowns.
A quarterback and team captain in high school, Fleming led Chaparral High School (Scottsdale, Ariz.) to a state championship. Darrell Bevell, now Green Bay quarterbacks coach, also is a former Chaparral signal caller. |
