The Green Bay Packers have elevated tight end Drake Dabney from the practice squad for their Week 9 game against the New England Patriots. The move was announced Saturday ahead of the contest at Gillette Stadium.

Dabney, who has spent time on Green Bay's practice roster, will provide additional depth at the tight end position for the Packers' offense. The transaction follows standard NFL roster management rules allowing teams to elevate up to two practice squad players per game week.
