The Green Bay Packers had an up-and-down year on defense in 2022. After a rough start to the season, the defense turned it around during the second half of the season and was a big reason why the team had a shot at making the playoffs. Rookie linebacker Quay Walker also had himself and up and down year. The 23-year-old rookie recorded 121 combined tackles, 7 pass deflections, and three forced fumbles, he seemed to be everywhere on the field at times. However, his discipline was brought into more than once after being ejected from multiple games last season.

“There’s going to be a huge emphasis, I would say, going into next season, about how we handle ourselves. Not only does it look bad, but it hurts the team. We can’t have it,” LaFleur said Monday following the Packers’ 20-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday night.
