The Green Bay Packers last offseason signed running back Josh Jacobs from the Las Vegas Raiders and he had a great 2024 season with the team. It will be interesting to see what he will do in his second season with the squad.
There is no doubt that the Packers will need to upgrade some parts on offense. It is no secret that Green Bay will need to find a number-one wide receiver for quarterback Jordan Love entering the 2025 NFL season. General Manager Brian Gutekunst has many potential ways to address the position.
Green Bay Packers Running Back Josh Jacobs Makes Crazy Comments About the Wide Receiver Room
Jacobs went onto the “No BS” podcast with Bill Schmid and Armen Saryan. He decided to talk about the Packers wide receiver group on the podcast. Josh Jacobs said:
“I think we need a guy that’s proven to be a #1 WR already.”
Those are some interesting comments from the star running back. He doesn’t want to see the team draft a wide receiver. Jacobs probably thinks that they should go after players like D.T. Metcalf, Tee Higgins, or Davante Adams this offseason. One of those three wide receivers would probably be a better bet than drafting a wide receiver in the first or second round in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Facts. This was the year that one of them stood up and claimed that title. None of them did. So, now we need to move for one. We can’t wait.

This is gonna cause a lot of locker room tension

Christian Watson will probably miss most of the 2025 NFL season with a torn ACL. Romeo Doubs could be traded this offseason. Jayden Reed is the only wide receiver on the Green Bay Packers that feels like he will be back next year.
Dontayvion Wicks struggled in his second NFL season. Josh Jacobs knows that this team needs help at the position. This is the second straight season that a Green Bay Packers wide receiver did not go over 1,000 yards receiving.
