The Green Bay Packers could have one of the most versatile secondaries in the NFL next season. It’s allowed defensive coordinator Jerry Gray to play with different lineups in the classroom this offseason.
“Guys learn more than one position,” Gray told reporters on Wednesday.
The Packers have plenty of guys they know that can play outside, but they have a crucial opening to fill at their slot or “star” position. That spot previously belonged to Chandon Sullivan, who was allowed to walk in free agency and sign with the Minnesota Vikings.
Over the last three seasons, Sullivan has played 1,331 snaps in the slot, according to Pro Football Focus.
