David Bakhtiari announced the end of his 11-year run with the Green Bay Packers in a post on both Instagram and Twitter on Monday.
Bakhtiari, who is likely being released, called his 11 seasons a “hell of a run” and thanked the city of Green Bay, the Packers organization, coaching staffs and support staff.
The Packers picked Bakhtiari in the fourth round of the 2013 draft. He went on to become a five-time All-Pro and three-time Pro Bowler. One of the NFL’s most dominant pass-blocking offensive tackles, Bakhtiari is almost certainly headed to the team’s Hall of Fame, and the Pro Football Hall of Fame isn’t out of the question if Bakhtiari can return to the field and produce over the next few seasons.
