GREEN BAY - The Green Bay Packers
have placed tackle Derek Sherrod on injured reserve and signed
tackle Herb Taylor to provide offensive line depth.
Sherrod, the team's first-round pick
in the 2011 draft, broke his right leg in the Packers' loss at
Kansas City on Sunday.
Taylor, a 6-4, 305-pound third-year
player, played in 18 games with one start for the Chiefs from
2007-08.
The Chiefs took him in the sixth
round of the 2007 draft after he started 48 games at TCU. Taylor was
on Denver's active roster briefly at the end of the 2009 season and
went to training camp with the Broncos in 2011 and the Giants in
2010.
