The Green Bay Packers will be in the postseason for the second straight season after amounting to an 11-5 record through 17 weeks. While the offense led by quarterback Jordan Love has been dominant this year, the defense for Green Bay has drastically improved from last year. However, their best player on defense just announced that he will be getting knee surgery, which will end his season and could even keep him out of the playoffs.
Star corner Jaire Alexander, who had been dealing with a PCL tear that has kept him out since mid-November, will now likely miss the rest of the season and postseason, according to head coach Matt LaFleur. Alexander has been regarded as one of the best young defenders in the league since entering in 2018, and his absence could affect what the Packers do in the playoffs.
With a career total of 287 tackles, 1.5 sacks, and 12 interceptions, the superstar has established himself as one of the league’s top covering players. Despite dominating for the majority of his career, Alexander has sadly been prone to injuries, missing 19 of the team’s last 33 games. Additionally, the star corner’s contract expires at the end of this season, thus Green Bay may look to trade this offseason.
