On Sunday, Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst made a notable admission when he spoke to reporters via videoconference. Amid all of the discussions about the Packers’ “new” offensive approach under Matt LaFleur, the 2020 offseason seemed to suggest that the team is looking for players at the H-back position.
Consider in particular that the team spent a third-round draft pick on Josiah Deguara, an ideal fit for that spot. The team also added fullback/tight end hybrid Jordan Jones as an undrafted free agent. On Friday, the team claimed H-back John Lovett on waivers from the Kansas City Chiefs, letting Jones go in his place.
