Many Green Bay Packers fans misinterpreted Brian Gutekunst’s comments regarding the team’s urgency to compete for championships. Gutekunst later clarified that the “sense of urgency” he referenced was not related to front office aggression in free agency or the draft, but rather the mindset and commitment expected within the locker room.
“I think the urgency comment is really more for our team, our organization to understand what the expectations are,” Gutekunst explained. “At the same time, for us, I think we were very urgent in free agency.
“Obviously, we went after a couple top targets (Nate Hobbs, Aaron Banks), we were able to acquire them, and I think that really is going to help our football team,” he added.
