Packers' Kamal Hadden: Expects 4-to-5-month recovery
Rotowire
Hadden (fibia/fibula) expects to face "a four- or five-month recovery" due to the broken right tibia and fibula he suffered versus the Ravens in Week 17, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Hadden is still using a knee coaster for mobility early January, as he recovers from surgery undergone to address a pair of fractures suffered to the area of his lower right leg. The reserve cornerback said he's taking his rehab a "day at a time." Hadden is slated to become an exclusive rights free agent this offseason, meaning Green Bay will have the option to retain him via a one-year, minimum-salary tender.

Chiefs' Kamal Hadden: Lands with champs in KC
Rotowire
The Chiefs selected Hadden in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 211th overall.
Hadden started his career at famed JUCO, Independence Community College in Kansas. He got himself onto Tennessee's radar and made 15 starts for the Volunteers over three seasons. He has good length for a corner at 6-foot-1 but has suspect foot speed (4.57). Hadden also had a number of injuries that cost him time at Tennessee. If he can avoid the injury bug, Hadden could stick in the Kansas City secondary.
