GREEN BAY, Wis. — All-Pro fullback John Kuhn is headed back to the Green Bay Packers.

Kuhn’s agent, Kevin Gold, said the veteran signed a one-year deal with Green Bay on Monday for the minimum salary of $870,000. The contract includes a workout and Pro Bowl bonuses.

A fan favourite at Lambeau Field, Kuhn is used primarily as a blocker for lead running back Eddie Lacy.

Kuhn ran for 92 yards and a touchdown on 27 carries in 2014, including the post-season. He has 17 rushing touchdowns in nine NFL seasons.
