Report: The Packers don’t believe their Week 1 swing tackle is on their roster

One week before the 2024 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers signed former first-round pick Andre Dillard to come in and compete for the squad’s swing tackle position. When right tackle Zach Tom missed significant time this offseason with a pec injury, Dillard played plenty of time with the first-team offensive line.

Apparently, the Packers haven’t been very impressed. According to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky, the “feeling internally” is that Green Bay’s first tackle off of the bench for the regular season isn’t on the team’s current roster. That’s a pretty crushing blow to Dillard, Caleb Jones and Kadeem Telfort, who have been competing for the position.
