Brian Gutekunst, Russ Ball and the Green Bay Packers are about to have a busy month or two. According to Over the Cap, the Packers are currently (as of Feb. 3) around $50 million over the 2022 salary cap, and this figure doesn’t even include the $20 million franchise tag expected to be given to All-Pro receiver Davante Adams. - Long story short: Like last offseason, the Packers must make a number of moves to fix their salary cap situation before the start of the new league year on March 16. - The team is in a difficult spot, but you can bet there’s been a thorough plan (and many backup plans) in place for months. In fact, it’s clear the Packers have a number of logical ways to dig their way out of this hole without completely gutting the roster and starting over in a rebuilding year in 2022. - Of course, Aaron Rodgers’ decision weighs heavily on the immediate future. What he decides may shape the entire offseason. - So, how can the Packers pull it off? Here is an in-depth breakdown of the most reasonable ways the Packers can reasonably clear cap space this offseason, using Ken Ingalls’ salary cap insights as a guide.
