Getting Rodgers or Jordan Love some weapons has to be at the top of the priority list. In four seasons at the helm, Gutekunst has slightly fractured Green Bay’s near-exclusive draft-and-develop approach to personnel, bringing in guys like Adrian Amos, Preston Smith, Za’Darius Smith, and Jimmy Graham on splashy free-agent deals. Whether he’s back or not, though, Green Bay is ostensibly prepping for another serious run. The painful contract Aaron Rodgers is now under is cost of deferring payouts for these past couple of seasons. Additional restructures are in the works, which should further increase that level of flexibility. In clearing out a significant chunk of space, the Packers will have the ability to make at least a couple of moves.
They’ve restructured Jaire Alexander, Aaron Jones, Preston Smith, and Kenny Clark‘s contracts, pushing money anywhere from 2024 to 2027. After starting February more than $16 million in the red, Brian Gutekunst and Russ Ball have pulled enough strings to land the Green Bay Packers more than $17 million below the 2023 salary cap.
