Report: Packers trade CB Rasul Douglas to Bills
Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports

The Buffalo Bills acquired veteran cornerback Rasul Douglas and a fifth-round draft pick from the Green Bay Packers in exchange for a third-rounder on Tuesday, NFL Network reported.

Douglas, 29, heads to an AFC contender that lacked cornerback depth after Tre'Davious White suffered a torn Achilles and was lost for the season.

The Bills will be Douglas' fourth team since entering the league in 2017 as a third-round draft pick of the Philadelphia Eagles. He has 15 career interceptions to go with 354 tackles, 66 pass breakups and two forced fumbles over 96 career games for the Eagles (2017-19), Carolina Panthers (2020), Packers and Bills.

Douglas had one interception, one fumble recovery and 32 tackles in seven starts for the Packers (2-5) this season.

Green Bay is in rebuilding mode in Jordan Love's first year at starting quarterback in place of Aaron Rodgers, while Buffalo (5-3) is in the thick of the AFC East race despite up-and-down performances.
