The Green Bay Packers and Cincinnati Bengals are two teams who are looking to get back into Super Bowl contention. It wasn’t that long ago that Cincinnati played in the Super Bowl, and just before that, Green Bay went to the NFC Championship game.
2025 will be focused on getting back to that next step.
Packers Could Lose Center Of Defense To Bengals; Multiple Reports
The Cincinnati Bengals are looking at all avenues to improve their team during one of the most crucial periods in their history.
Other means of improving the roster will also be examined alongside contracts for Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Trey Hendrickson:
Take, for example, striking up trades. One interesting hypothetical idea just proposed? Calling the Green Bay Packers about linebacker Quay Walker, courtesy of Bleacher Report’s Gary Davenport:
Walker has struggled at times for Green Bay. He needs to clean up his tackling and he’s still refining his game, but the prospect of adding more length and athleticism to pair with Wilson could make this a better defense next season.
It’s easy to handwave such an idea away because the roster already boasts Logan Wilson and Germaine Pratt.
But as outsiders, we can’t 100 percent know how new coordinator Al Golden feels about both for the future. He helped coach both up, yes, but with full control of the overall unit, perhaps he wants different skill sets for his scheme.
Here is a look at Walker’s stats:
