The Green Bay Packers are no strangers to making tough decisions during the off-season. Those type of decisions have paved the way to where they are now: one of the youngest teams in the league coming off back to back playoff trips.
However, those tough decisions don’t seem to be going away any time soon.
“That’s A No” Packers Fans React To GM Signifying The End Of Starter’s Time In Green Bay
According to Aaron Nagler of CheeseHead TV:

Jaire Alexander’s potential departure this offseason has been talked about numerous times over the last few months:
There was buzz regarding that even before the Packers season ended and it has only continued with ESPN’s Rob Demovsky reporting in mid-February that the team could cut Alexander as frustrations grow over his “inability to stay healthy and/or play through injuries.”
While a trade would also be on the table, a post-June 1 designated cut would save the Packers $17 million from Alexander’s cap hit (they would also save $6.8 million as a pre-June 1 cut).
Here is a look at Alexanders’ career stats:
