Packers have high hopes for inside linebacker group

The Green Bay Packers started rookie minicamp last Friday, and many of those rookies will be counted on to make an impact right away in the upcoming 2021-22 season.

While rookie-play will undoubtedly be important, I think there’s one specific position group that’s been overlooked in the offseason chatter. And I think it’s one that will hold a major key in the success of the defense – and of the overall team.

The Packers will need to see a major jump from the inside linebacker position in 2021.

The group – consisting of Isaiah McDuffie, Oren Burks, Ty Summers, Krys Barnes and Kamal Martin – is a very talented bunch.
