Safety Morgan Burnett signed a contract extension with the Packers before his fourth NFL season, so he’s never experienced free agency during his professional career.
If the Packers and Burnett don’t agree to a new deal, that will change when March 14 rolls around. Burnett said during an appearance on Sirius XM NFL Radio that he doesn’t know what to expect from the process, but that it would be something of a shock to the system if he found himself in a different uniform.
“When you’ve been in a place for so long, you put your heart and soul into something going on eight years, it’s going to be tough if it plays out another way,” Burnett said.
