Had the Green Bay Packers offered a contract comparable to what Jaire Alexander received from the Baltimore Ravens, the two-time Pro Bowler/Second-Team All-Pro is still rolling with the Cheeseheads. That's what Landis Alexander, Jaire's father, said during a recent appearance on KBN ESPN Milwaukee's Kyle, Brust, & Nortman show.
It still seems surreal (or unreal). After seven seasons and some back and forth, Jaire was released by the only NFL team he had ever played for up until that point on June 9. He put pen to paper and agreed to a one-year deal in Baltimore that would pay him up to $6 million with incentives.
