In the last four seasons, Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander has missed 34 of 68 games. Alexander has been a locker room cancer. And he’s played mediocre football.

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst wrapped up the season with a long press conference on Thursday at Lambeau Field. Here’s what he had to say about some key players with contract questions.

Gutekunst signed quarterback Jordan Love to a contract worth $220 million over four years last training camp before Love had an inconsistent season, partly because of his own inaccuracies and sloppy footwork but also because of factors outside his control like injuries and offensive line play.

Jaire Alexander isn’t sure if he’ll be back with the Packers after a frustrating and injury-riddled 2024 season.
