GREEN BAY, Wisconsin - The Green Bay Packers cut LG Mike Wahle to gain $11 million of cap room. The team also cut C Grey Ruegamer, who filled in when Mike Flanagan went down with a season-ending knee injury in the first month of last season.

The Packers re-signed WR/KR Antonio Chatman and DE R-Kal Truluck to one-year deals and they tendered offers to six restricted free agents: T Kevin Barry, former University of Miami standout RB Najeh Davenport, DE Aaron Kampman, LB Paris Lenon and QBs Craig Nall and J.T. O'Sullivan.

Wahle was the Packers' starter at LG for the last four seasons and played in 103 consecutive games. He helped the Packers establish franchise records in total net yards (6,357) and net passing yards (4,449), and its franchise low for sacks allowed (14). However, the way his contract was structured, his cap number for 2005 was a prohibitive $11.337 million - second only to quarterback Brett Favre.
