Former SEMO Linebacker Kendall Donnerson Signed to Green Bay Packers Active Roster

The Green Bay Packers announced Tuesday that they have signed former Southeast Missouri outside linebacker Kendall Donnerson to the active roster from the practice squad.

Donnerson joins the team's active roster after being signed to Green Bay's practice squad on Sept. 2, 2018. He was selected by the Packers with the third of three choices in the seventh round (No. 248 overall) of the 2018 NFL Draft, a pick obtained from Seattle along with a first-round pick (No. 18 overall) in exchange for Green Bay's first-round pick (No. 27, from New Orleans), a third-round pick (No. 76) and a sixth-round pick (No. 186).

Donnerson became the first player to be drafted out of Southeast Missouri since center Eugene Amano in 2004 (Tennessee, seventh round). He is the only player from SEMO to be drafted by the Packers. Donnerson and former SEMO teammate Mike Ford (CB, Detroit Lions) are currently on active NFL rosters.

A native of Maumelle, Arkansas, Donnerson will be active for Green Bay's game against Atlanta Sunday.
