Safety is a sneaky need for the Packers

When we talk about Green Bay Packers needs, wide receiver immediately (and fairly) comes to mind. Tackle, edge, and defensive tackle also are mentioned frequently. But there is a position that is filled, but demands an active approach not to become a problem in the near future: safety. This offseason, there was an expectation that Adrian Amos could be extended. But the Packers decided only to restructure his contract, opening up $ 4.7 million in cap space in 2022. But that also means Amos will be a free agent in 2023. Darnell Savage is in the final year of his rookie deal and, although the Packers can exercise his fifth-year option for 2023, the decision must come by May 2nd, and it's far from a certainty.
