3 free agent safeties with ties to Packers new defensive coaching staff

Safety is arguably the Packers biggest positional need this offseason. If GM Brian Gutekunst chooses to address this position in free agency, there are three free agents with ties to the Packers' defensive coaching staff, including new defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley.

Both depth and playmaking are needed at the safety position. Under contract at the moment is Benny Sapp, Anthony Johnson, and Zayne Anderson. No Packers safety from 2023 finished in the top half of the NFL in forced incompletions, while missed tackles, and poor communication at times, especially without Darnell Savage when he was injured, led to coverage breakdowns.
