John Kuhn's agent: mutual interest in 2015 return to Packers

Veteran fullback John Kuhn may be returning to the Green Bay Packers for a ninth season.

Kuhn's agent, Kevin Gold, met with the Packers at the scouting combine and there's mutual interest in getting a new deal done, reports Weston Hodkiewicz of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.

The 32-year-old was used sparingly at the start of 2014, but played a bigger role as the season went on, particularly after quarterback Aaron Rodgers suffered a hamstring injury. Kuhn earned his second Pro Bowl nod and was named a first-team All-Pro for the first time in his career.

It may take some time for the two sides to reach an agreement, though, as the Packers have 15 players set to become free agents and are prioritizing wide receiver Randall Cobb and right tackle Bryan Bulaga at the moment.
