Knee Keeps Shinn Out of Action with Packers
Mike Shinn, former Kansas University end and tackle, did not report to the Green Bay Packers this fall due to knee trouble. Drafted No. 8 a year ago as a future, he played two years for the Jayhawks and was moved to tackle last season to protect the knee. The 6-5, 230-pound Topeka native signed with Green Bay on a conditional basis and was to be tried at linebacker, but he did not report for a fall tryout. He is an education major finishing engineering work at KU.
