I’m joking of course. But sadly my words will be echoed around Green Bay Packers Nation following the re-signing of Don Barclay.
And while this is hardly the free agency “splash” many fans want, it’s a necessary signing. With JC Tretter departing for Cleveland and T.J. Lang’s status still up in the air, the Packers needed to make a move to ensure they have depth along the offensive line.
Barclay will now step into the backup center role. That’s not to say the Packers won’t add some competition before the offseason is all said and done, either through free agency or the 2017 NFL Draft this April.
