It’s salary cap shedding season in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
The Packers have begun making moves to get under the salary cap for 2022, kicking $23.2million worth of contracts down the road by restructuring the deals of Kenny Clark, Aaron Jones and David Bakhtiari.
These were straightforward and expected lever pulls for Executive Vice President/Director of Football Operations, Russ Ball, with Clark, Jones and Bakhtiari all key players whom the Packers hope to keep around for years to come.
Along with the slew of restructures which will undoubtedly continue to be filter through, Green Bay can of course use contract extensions to help eat into their salary cap deficit, while also securing the futures of vital players.
