The Green Bay Packers are reportedly open to trading their star cornerback, Jaire Alexander, following recent injury challenges. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on February 26, 2025, that the Packers have engaged in trade discussions involving Alexander and are willing to move him for the right offer. cite turn0search2
Alexander, a two-time Pro Bowler, has faced significant injury setbacks over the past two seasons, limiting him to just 16 games out of a possible 37. In 2024, a torn PCL sidelined him after Week 11, and despite hopes for a late-season return, he remained inactive. These health issues have raised concerns within the organization about his future with the team.
Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst addressed the uncertainty surrounding Alexander’s status during the team’s season-ending press conference on January 16, stating, “We’ll see. We’re working through that. He certainly could be. But we’ll work through that as we go.” cite turn0search2
Financial considerations also play a role in the Packers’ decision-making process. Releasing Alexander could result in significant salary cap savings, especially if designated as a post-June 1 release. cite turn0news10
Alexander’s own comments have added to the speculation. At the conclusion of the 2024 season, he declined to speak with reporters, mentioning he didn’t know if he would be with the team next year and had “nothing good to say.” cite turn0search0
As the NFL offseason progresses, Alexander’s situation remains a focal point, with potential trade developments likely to unfold in the coming weeks.
