Coleman Owen has stepped in as the Green Bay Packers' punt returner during their "Sunday Night Football" matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on October 19, 2026. Owen, who signed with the team in late September, returned his first punt for 16 yards in the first quarter. His elevation comes in light of returner Skyy Moore being placed on injured reserve. Owen spent last season primarily on the practice squad of the Indianapolis Colts and played his college football at Ohio, earning first-team All-MAC honors. The Packers are seeking to bolster their return game as they navigate mid-season injuries.
