Roster crunch: Will the Packers keep 6 or 7 wide receivers?

When the time comes for the Green Bay Packers to put together their 53-man roster, will they keep six or seven wide receivers?

Part of the roster construction equation that the Packers will face when making their final cutdowns in late August is how many players to keep at each position group, which can result in difficult decisions being made.

Given the depth that the Packers have at receiver, it feels safe to say that they will for sure roster six on their initial 53-man, something that hasn’t always been a given—in 2020 the Packers rostered just five receivers initially.
