At his season-ending press conference, Green Bay Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst talked about the need to ramp up the team’s sense of urgency in the pursuit of a championship. The comment got a lot of attention, with many assuming he meant the front office would be more aggressive in free agency or the draft.
That wasn’t the message he intended. Gutekunst later clarified that he was referring to the mindset inside the building — specifically, how the team approaches its day-to-day work rather than significant roster moves.
The Packers made some notable moves in free agency, signing cornerback Nate Hobbs, guard Aaron Banks, and wide receiver Mecole Hardman — moves that some would consider aggressive by the team’s standards.
