The Green Bay Packers offense has a chance to be very lethal this season. A season ago, the Packers offense averaged 359.7 yards per game. They averaged 112.1 yards rushing per game and averaged 233.4 net yards passing per game.
Green Bay doesn’t rely on one offensive player. They have so many different players on the roster who can beat opposing defenses. The Green Bay Packers made some moves offensively this offseason to help improve the roster for the 2024 season.

Green Bay is one of the youngest teams in the NFL. They have a chance to grow into something greater this season depending on how things fall for them.
Running Back Josh Jacobs Listed As One Of The Most Underrated Players For the Green Bay Packers Entering the 2024 Season

Brian Sampson of dairylandexpress.com listed five Packers players who are underrated entering the 2024 season. One of those players is running back Josh Jacobs. He was signed as a free agent this offseason. Jacobs started his career with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Sampson said about Jacobs:
“Josh Jacobs was an All-Pro in 2022, rushing for 1653 yards and 12 touchdowns. Unfortunately, he had a down 2023 campaign (805 yards and six touchdowns) that has soured many fans and analysts as to what he can do.
Although he probably won’t replicate his All-Pro season, he’s highly unlikely to repeat his 2023 season as well. His production will likely fall in the middle for what promises to be a balanced Packers’ attack.
And that’s exactly what the doctor ordered for Green Bay. Head coach Matt LaFleur likes to build his actions on one another. He not only uses the run to set up the pass but builds in plenty of similarities in his plays so that they all look the same. This keeps defenses guessing and on their toes.
Green Bay offers more weapons than the Raiders could dream of. That will make boxes lighter and open up more running lanes for Jacobs. He should rejoin the 1000-yard rushing club this season.”
Josh Jacobs will be the starting running back this season for the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay released Aaron Jones the same day they signed Jacobs. They upgraded at the running back position with that move.

Another thing to keep an eye on is rookie running back Marshawn Lloyd, who could potentially beat out A.J. Dillon for the backup running back job. The Green Bay Packers need to keep Josh Jacobs fresh and healthy this season because he is one of the best running backs in the NFL.
