Among the Uncertainty, You Can Count on a Jaire Alexander Extension to Free Up Cap Space

I imagine that you are more than well aware that the Green Bay Packers find themselves in a salary cap bind this offseason--and perhaps that's putting it mildly.

At the moment, Over the Cap has the Packers at $50.7 million over the projected 2022 cap. However, that's only the starting point. That $50.7 million figure doesn't factor in the costs for the incoming draft class, the practice squad, any in-season spending, the 52nd or 53rd players on the roster, not to mention any re-signings or free-agent additions.

So yeah, you get the idea, the Green Bay Packers will have to clear more than just that $50.
