Wednesday marks the start of the new league year in the NFL, meaning it’s also the deadline for teams to place tenders on their restricted free agents. For the Green Bay Packers, their main (and possibly only) target to re-sign is offensive lineman Yosh Nijman — who has played both tackle positions but most recently spent time as the Packers’ right tackle.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Green Bay has given Nijman a second-round tender ahead of the deadline. This was the expected move and now gives the Packers the first right of refusal on any offer sheet that another team could potentially offer Nijman.
