Impending free-agent FB John Kuhn will remain with the New Orleans Saints, according to a league source.

Free-agent FB John Kuhn (Packers) said he would like to sign with a Super Bowl contender if he is not able to re-sign with the Green Bay Packers.
| Footballguys view: It's sad that Kuhn isn't with the Packers, but we could see him latch on with another team at some point before the regular season. The fullback is a dying position, so only a small handful of teams would be interested. |

Free-agent FB John Kuhn (Packers) appears to be in the Green Bay Packers' rearview mirror and is not expected to re-sign. FB Aaron Ripkowski is expected to take over starting fullback duties.
| Footballguys view: We'll miss the chants of "KUHN!!1!" from Packers fans in 2016. The fullback is a dying position in the NFL, but there's a few teams that could have interest in Kuhn under certain circumstances. |

Packers | Fan fave John Kuhn to hit market? Thu Feb 4, 12:59 AM
Green Bay Packers impending free-agent FB John Kuhn would like to play another year or two. While his blocking has been on the decline, and he is 33 years old, he is a favorite of QB Aaron Rodgers and head coach Mike McCarthy.
| Footballguys view: The team brought on Aaron Ripkowski as an eventual replacement for Kuhn, but the leadership the veteran brings cannot be overlooked. The Packers will try to bring him back, but at the right price only. |

Packers | Fullback aids Eddie Lacy's running Tue Nov 24, 10:15 AM
Updating an earlier report, Green Bay Packers RB Eddie Lacy rushed 22 times for 100 yards in Week 11, and FB John Kuhn was repeatedly seen crossing the formation opening lanes for Lacy. Kuhn was the lead blocker on 20 of the 34 runs Sunday, Nov. 22, according to NFL Media's Brian Baldinger. 'I thought Mike McCarthy and the whole staff did some things from a formation standpoint to get Lacy going, and I thought they got the balance in a game that they've been looking for: 34 runs, 34 passes, it's not all Aaron Rodgers,' Baldinger told viewers on NFL Network's latest edition of The Aftermath, saying of Lacy: 'I saw his footwork yesterday. That guy can stop and he can start. He looked a lot the kid that played at Alabama three years ago and like we saw the last couple seasons. He looked like he was healthy and in good form right now.'
| Footballguys view: The Packers were able to spring Lacy against the Vikings on Sunday. He looked like the back many selected in the first round of fantasy drafts, and there's hope going forward that he'll be able to maintain this momentum. We like Lacy as a RB1 in Week 12 on Thanksgiving against the Bears. |

| Footballguys view: Kuhn! Even though he was on the open market, we always expected Kuhn to return to Green Bay. He'll vulture a few touchdowns away from Eddie Lacy once again this year. |

Green Bay Packers impending free-agent FB John Kuhn said he would be open to re-signing with the Packers but wants to test the free-agent market before signing with a team.

Packers | John Kuhn blocking well Mon Jul 21, 11:15 AM
Green Bay Packers FB John Kuhn didn't have a quarterback pressure in 325 snaps last season, with half of the snaps coming in spread formations. 'He did block better,' an NFC North scout said. 'He can cover you up as a lead (blocker) but he's just not great there. He's valuable because he's really good in pass protection and he can catch the ball.'

Packers | Several in mix for No. 5 RB job Wed Jul 16, 11:36 PM
If the Green Bay Packers elect to keep five running backs on the roster, there is a wide open battle behind RBs Eddie Lacy, James Starks, DuJuan Harris and FB John Kuhn. RBs Michael Hill, Raijon Neal, LaDarius Perkins and Ina Liaina will try to prove they belong during training camp and the preseason.
| Footballguys view: We like Perkins in this race. He's a good all-around talent who is swift with the ball in his hands. Perkins can change direction smoothly and provide the team with a decent receiving option out of the backfield. |

Packers | John Kuhn will head to free agency Thu Mar 6, 03:33 PM
Green Bay Packers impending free agent FB John Kuhn will not get a new deal before the beginning of free agency. Kuhn will keep in touch with the team and there is a possibility that he could return.
| Footballguys view: The Packers seem to be making some interesting choices, though if Kuhn was looking for a sizable payday, it wasn't going to happen in Green Bay. A solid blocker who did a lot of off-tackle goal-line diving, Kuhn could end up back in Green Bay as fullbacks aren't exactly hot commodities. |
