Packers Reportedly Open to Trading Jaire Alexander in Pivotal Offseason

Green Bay is considering moving its star cornerback as part of broader roster adjustments following injury concerns and salary cap implications.

  • The Green Bay Packers are reportedly exploring trade options for cornerback Jaire Alexander, a two-time Pro Bowler with a history of injuries.
  • Alexander's substantial $25.5 million cap hit and limited availability over the past two seasons have prompted discussions about his future with the team.
  • Potential trade destinations include the Las Vegas Raiders, with speculation of a mid-round draft pick as possible compensation, though valuations vary widely.
  • Trading Alexander could save the Packers $6.8 million in cap space, but the team would need to address significant depth issues in their cornerback roster.
  • General Manager Brian Gutekunst has emphasized the need to make bold moves to build a Super Bowl-contending team, with Alexander's trade being a key decision point.
