GREEN BAY, Wis. – In one trade, the Green Bay Packers made two intensions clear:
Brett Hundley won’t be handed the backup quarterback job again, and they’re serious about overhauling their defense.
In his first major move as general manager, Brian Gutekunst sent cornerback Damarious Randall to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for quarterback DeShone Kizer in a trade consummated on Friday. The teams also swapped picks in the fourth and fifth rounds, meaning the Packers moved to the top of those rounds.
Clearly, the Packers weren’t satisfied with the way Hundley performed last season after Aaron Rodgers broke his collarbone.
