The Green Bay Packers attempted to add help for Joe Barry’s defense via trade this week.
According to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, the Packers made calls this week about a trade for a linebacker but were unable to find a match.
Jones didn’t specify whether the calls were about inside or outside linebackers, just linebackers. It’s an important distinction. Did the Packers want to upgrade at inside linebacker, where De’Vondre Campbell and Krys Barnes started and struggled in Week 1? Or did the Packers want to add help at outside linebacker, where the team just lost Za’Darius Smith to injured reserve?
