Update on Jaire Alexander

Jaire playing for Packers in 2025 just feels like the most likely scenario. And it has for weeks, especially with him not being moved during the draft.

He's been in steady contact with the players, even following rookies on Instagram and working out with fellow secondary guys.

I hope he's here and healthy.

OR this is all a ruse to try an ramp up suitors for trade. Who freaking knows.

I wouldn't mind if he stayed in GB. My only concern would be if he came down with a severe season ending "injury" in the preseason. I don't think that his character but you never know when someone gets mad.

I am very suspicious of his character at least in the play hurt/ <100% healthy sense. I'd bet I'm not alone over at 1265.

From Rob (@RobLorge): If the Packers did trade Jaire Alexander, who are the teams most likely to be interested?

Rob, I could throw the San Francisco 49ers, Rams, Steelers and Chiefs out there as teams that entered the draft with needs at the position, and didn’t take corners in the first two rounds of the draft. The question, to me, comes down to money. He’s due $17.5 million this year. And, because of his recent injury history, that’s shown to be a bit rich for interested teams. Alexander, meanwhile, would rather be cut so he can pick his destination, and he might not be willing to help with a contract adjustment to facilitate a trade.

I would think, at this point, the most likely scenario is that he’s back on a reduced contract that has incentives. We’ll see.

No idea if the rumors were true, but the Ravens were the ones that kept coming up the most in rumors.

But I don't think any of the teams will take Alexander's current contract, with his current injury history.

The question is can the Packers get him to take less to stick around, vs probably taking even less to be on the FA market.

Probably revised contract coming huh?

“It appears more likely that Alexander will remain with the Packers. Alexander has had great talks with HC Matt LaFleur and Brian Gutekunst. He also has a great relationship with DC Jeff Hafley.”

There are not many Packer fans that want him with a $24 mil cap hit.
Most would want to keep him at the league minimum.
Everything in between is a part of the negotiation process.
He's worth $10 mil a year. Give him incentives to earn back more of his contract and let's call it a day.

When he is on, when he want to be, he is outstanding.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
