Packers Pushed To Sign Five-Time Pro Bowler To Bolster Secondary

After losing Jaire Alexander in June, Green Bay Packers fans are now turning their hopes to a reshuffled cornerback room for answers in 2025. Green Bay signed Nate Hobbs in free agency, and he should start alongside Keisean Nixon in base defense. However, both have primarily lined up in the slot throughout their careers, and the lack of reliable, consistent production on the outside is a concern.

The depth behind Hobbs and Nixon is not very encouraging. Carrington Valentine is expected to be the third-string cornerback and should see some snaps in nickel formations. Meanwhile, Kalen King, Gregory Junior, Kamal Hadden, Isaiah Dunn, Johnathan Baldwin, and Tyron Herring will all compete for a roster spot in training camp and will most likely contribute on special teams.
