Although the negotiation period for free agency does not start until noon Eastern today, the Green Bay Packers are in the news for an interesting rumor. The assumed needs for this team are pass rush off the edge and safety, but the team is apparently looking into defensive linemen for Mike Pettine’s unit as well.
While interest has remained strong between the Packers and Muhammad Wilkerson about a reunion for 2019, the team may be looking elsewhere for help as well. According to Pro Football Talk, the Packers are one of two teams in the running to sign defensive lineman Malik Jackson, who was recently released by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
