Green Bay — Exactly 10 years ago, Packers kicker Ryan Longwell was preparing to enter unrestricted free agency. Longwell was 31 at the time, had just completed his ninth season in Green Bay, and was the franchise's all-time leading scorer.
Two months later, Longwell signed with divisional rival Minnesota.
Fast forward to 2016, where Mason Crosby is in a similar position. Crosby, 31, also just completed his ninth season in Green Bay, and has passed Longwell as the Packers' all-time scoring leader in that time.
Crosby will become an unrestricted free agent in March.
