Harvey Binford has technically been on our roster all season, but not anymore thanks to the opening of NFL training camps.
The Green Bay Packers signed Binford to a camp invite, with preseason action starting for the Packers in two weeks.
Binford has sat inactive in all games for the Soul this season except for week three’s match against Portland, where he was just as quiet with 17 yards on two receptions.
Originally picked up in the 2014 open tryouts, we saw glimpses of his potential during his first season with the team in 2015, when he earned 412 receiving yards and seven touchdowns on just 24 receptions in the seven games he played.
He’s been one of the mysteries behind the politics of the league with his inactivity, but there’s been no doubt about his talent and playmaking skills.
Binford would have been a nice addition to the Soul offense had he played more this season, but his absence throughout the year means he won’t leave a hole the team needs to fill on the starting roster heading into the playoffs. It will be interesting to see if the team picks up a veteran to fill the vacancy in the meantime, but it won’t be a game changing move.
Best of luck to Binford in Green Bay.
