The Green Bay Packers have re-signed cornerback Jumal Rolle to the practice squad and released receiver Alex Gillett.

Green Bay Packers cornerback Jumal Rolle during training camp practice at Ray Nitschke Field, Thursday, August 21, 2014.

Rolle was a participant at practice Monday, while center JC Tretter (knee), tight end Brandon Bostick (lower leg) and cornerback Demetri Goodson (concussion) all sat out. Both Bostick and Goodson were present.

Rolle, 24, signed onto the Packers' practice squad midway through last season before being promoted to the active roster the final week of the season. He had nine tackles and a sack during the preseason and fell just short of earning a roster spot.

The Packers haven't announced their injury report yet for the week, but Tretter, Bostick and Goodson are not expected to play in Thursday's regular-season opener against Seattle.
