Packers had interest in DeVante Parker before trade to Patriots

The Green Bay Packers are exploring the trade market for a veteran receiver, even if one of the team’s targets was already moved.

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the Packers were one of three teams to express interest in DeVante Parker before the Miami Dolphins completed a trade with the New England Patriots for the 29-year-old receiver.

Parker’s preference was to go to New England. The Patriots traded next year’s third-round pick for Parker and a fifth-round pick in this year’s draft.

Still, the Packers’ interest here is notable.
