The Green Bay Packers made one thing clear today: they are serious about a playoff run. The team is coming off three consecutive, and very impressive might I add, wins. After starting 3-6, the Packers have stormed back to .500 and currently hold the seventh and final playoff spot in the NFC.
Today, the Packers brought in a veteran running back who could make a real impact on their offense.
The Green Bay Packers Sign Running Back Kenyan Drake
According to a report today:
Veteran Running Back Kenyan Drake took to Twitter (X) to announce he will be a member of the Packers:
About 20 minutes prior to that he posted this:
The 29-year-old Kenyan Drake has been in the NFL since 2016. His NFL career includes stints with the Miami Dolphins, Arizona Cardinals, Las Vegas Raiders, and Baltimore Ravens. He has played with several teams this year, including the Indianapolis Colts, Baltimore Ravens (again), and Cleveland Browns. The Ravens have used him just twice, with two receptions for 31 yards and just one carry for no yards.
Packers Fans Absolutely Loved The Signing Of Drake
With Aaron Jones’ return this season up in the air, many Packers fans were ecstatic to see a veteran and versatile running back added to the team:
Great pick up for the Pack. Dude is a beast! Great receiver out of the backfield. Welcome!

Drake, 29, brings experience to a running back room that has lost it’s key piece. He has more than 3,800 rushing yards and 1,600 receiving yards. If the Packers are able to utilize him in the passing game, they might just have added a layer to their offense that has been missing since Jones went down with an injury.
