Packers edge rusher Brenton Cox Jr. ‘ready for his opportunity’ in Year 2

Edge rusher depth is an under-the-radar need for the Green Bay Packers, but a jump from Brenton Cox Jr. in his second season can alleviate that potential issue.

While at the top of the depth chart the Packers do have Preston Smith, Rashan Gary and Lukas Van Ness, this is a heavily rotated position with four and sometimes even five players seeing snaps each week.

Beyond those three, Kinglsey Enagbare is recovering from an ACL injury he suffered in the playoff game against Dallas. A timetable for his return his still unknown.
