- The Packers had already made the move that signaled a reset: they let Josh Myers walk after the 2024 season, watched him sign a one-year deal with the New York Jets worth $3.5 million, then shifted Elgton Jenkins to center and signed Aaron Banks to a four-year, $77 million contract.
- Green Bay brought in three guards after the Week 3 loss to Atlanta, and head coach Matt LaFleur said there’s a chance two of those new signings could start in Week 4.
- The Packers’ revamped front is drawing what has been described as arguably the NFL’s worst pass rush, with Tampa Bay ranking dead last in pass rush.
- For Green Bay, the bigger issue is that this line is still trying to become a line.
- Four of the five starters are playing out of position, and that has shown up in the results.
- Green Bay needed to make upgrades after three games, but the broader coverage around the team has already asked why the Packers waited until after Week 3 to address the line when the need had been visible last season and throughout the offseason.
- What is clear is that the Packers are now trying to patch the problem while the season is already moving.
- That makes Week 4 less about a clean fix than a first real look at whether the fix can hold.
