How many times have we heard those intimately involved with the ins and outs of the Green Bay Packers talk about balance? Balance has been an emphasis of head coach Mike McCarthy’s for about as long as he’s been in charge.
Of course, the kind of balance he’s usually referring to is the kind you see between the white lines on game days.
This year, on the other hand, the Packers could very well come to benefit from a different kind of balance—the kind that creates symmetry between those within the locker room. In particular, the Green Bay will hope to capitalize on the balance exhibited by the combination of two free agent additions to their tight end room, Martellus Bennett and Lance Kendricks.
