Green Bay’s Bo Melton still considers himself a wide receiver first and foremost even as he spends part of the Packers’ minicamp working out at cornerback.

Bo Melton’s confidence as a receiver hasn’t diminished, but diversifying his role might be the best way to crack the Packers' roster.

The Green Bay Packers released two-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jaire Alexander on Monday, and following his departure, the team moved wide receiver Bo Melton to the cornerback position. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Melton impressed the Packers on special teams and that coaches were open to seeing him play on the defensive side of the ball.
