Green Bay Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst said Tuesday that he expects outside linebacker Preston Smith to remain with the team for next season.
“Preston has played a lot of really good football for us, and certainly we’d like to have him back next year. He’s under contract, so we certainly expect him to be back,” Gutekunst said, via Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
Smith has two years remaining on the four-year contract he signed with the Packers in 2019. However, the Packers have some salary cap issues to address and Smith seemed at least feasible to be a potential cap casualty.
