Packers Secondary Depth is Troubling

After locking down Jaire Alexander with a 4 year extension this offseason, Green Bay ensured that the trio of Alexander, Eric Stokes, and Rasul Douglas are all under contract through the 2024 season. This undoubtedly gives them one of the top cornerback groups across the league. Mix in Adrian Amos and Darnell Savage, and the Packers secondary looks to be as complete as any. But the depth behind that group leaves a lot to be desired. And the Packers have seen first-hand in recent years the importance of having competent back-ups behind their star players.

In an NFL where nickel has become the new base defense, the Packers basically have a starting 5 on the back end.
