Lyerla reached an injury settlement with the Packers on Tuesday and has been waived off injured reserve, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Lyerla's time with the Packers came to an end after he tore the MCL and PCL in his right knee during an Aug. 2 practice. He will be eligible to return to the Packers in Week 14 if they decide to bring him back, but he will also be able to sign to the practice squad or roster of other teams after the settlement is up after Week 8.

2014 Fantasy Outlook
Lyerla joined the Packers as a rookie free agent that went undrafted due to lengthy character concerns. Nonetheless, at 6-4, 242 pounds with a 4.61 40 time, Lyerla is regarded as a "physical marvel" that boasts a combination of size and speed measurables to become an outstanding tight end. Prior to getting booted from Oregon's program, Lyerla racked up 11 touchdowns and 16.6 yards per catch in 27 games. He unfortunately suffered a torn MCL and PCL in his knee during training camp and was waived by the Packers in August. There's still a chance another team could stash him on their practice squad.
