Gets look from Green Bay The Packers hosted Brown (chest) for a workout Tuesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Brown spent training camp with the Packers but suffered a collapsed lung during Green Bay's second preseason game against Indianapolis in mid-August. He was waived by the Packers with an injury settlement in early September, but the 25-year-old safety has progressed enough in his recovery to work out for teams. Brown will look to catch on with a team in need of secondary depth and an extra contributor on special teams.

Impact Brown had to be carted off the field while wearing an oxygen mask after suffering a chest injury in the third quarter of Saturday's game. Further tests showed a lung injury, and he'll remain in the hospital to be monitored for a second-straight night, though there's optimism that he'll rejoin the team in Green Bay on Monday. An exact timeline for Brown's return is uncertain, but he's facing an uphill battle in being available for the Packers' regular-season opener against the Lions on Sunday, Sept. 7. An extended absence for Brown would open the door for Kitan Oladapo to make the Packers' 53-man roster at the end of training camp.
