While the wide receiver position has stolen most of the offseason headlines, there’s another major question involving the Green Bay Packers’ pass-catchers this season: Who will start at tight end opposite of Marcedes Lewis prior to Robert Tonyan’s return from his ACL injury?
Tonyan, who tore his ACL against the Arizona Cardinals last season, is expected to return to the team during the regular season but will likely start the year on the physically unable to perform list, which would keep him off the field for at least the first six weeks of the season. While Lewis has been the Packers’ traditional blocking tight end, that is not an every-down role for Green Bay and leads to plenty of rotation at the position.
