Omar Brown emerges as contender in safety depth battle

There’s still some shuffling near the top of the depth chart to be done, but Brian Gutekunst’s 2024 rapid rebuild of the Packers’ safety group is still largely holding strong.

Xavier McKinney figures to again be a leader, if not the outright best player, on the Packers’ defense, and Evan Williams and Javon Bullard give the Packers options alongside him. For my money, McKinney’s partner on the back end should be Evan Williams with Bullard figuring things out in the slot (and based on last year, there’s a lot of figuring out to be done), but that’s a scheme question, not a talent one.
