WATCH: 3 free agents the Green Bay Packers should still target
Apr. 25, 2024 – 02:33 – The Green Bay Packers entered the 2022 offseason with the second-worst salary cap situation in the NFL. Only the New Orleans Saints had a worst hole than the Packers, who needed to shed over $50 million in payroll in order to get to the 2022 salary cap.
Through a series of moves that included releasing Za’Darius Smith and restructuring several contracts, the Packers were able to turn their deficit into $17 million in cap space. With so much cap space now available, the Packers can turn their attention to various free agents that are still available to fill holes on their roster.
