After injuries and sub-par play in the secondary killed the Packers chances at a Super Bowl, the thought heading into 2017 was “It can’t get any worse.”
Well ...
OK, it wasn’t actually worse. The pass defense improved, Damarious Randall bounced back after a rough start, and Davon House’s return to the team buoyed a young, inconsistent secondary.
Unfortunately for the Packers, the only corner who stayed healthy all season was Randall, with rookie Kevin King battling a shoulder injury that ultimately ended his year. House fluttered in and out of the lineup with nagging soft tissue injuries, and Quinten Rollins went out in September with a season-ending injury.
