Packers’ inside linebacker makeover is underway … could it somehow lead back to Clay (Matthews)?

GREEN BAY — Give Brian Gutekunst this: When he intimated — on multiple occasions — that he wanted to remake the Green Bay Packers' inside linebacker position, it wasn’t just innuendo. The Packers' general manager has put his decision-making where his mouth was.

Now he just has to figure out what happens next at the position after letting Blake Martinez and B.J. Goodson walk in free agency, adding an injury-discounted Christian Kirksey after he was released by the Cleveland Browns and pinning his hopes for the position on two largely inexperienced recent draft picks (Oren Burks and Ty Summers) with most of the notable names in free agency at the position having landed elsewhere and the April 23-25 NFL draft still a month away.
