What to do with David Bakhtiari is a fairly polarizing issue among Packers’ fans. Should the Packers trade, release, or extend him? If so, when? Since the Packers have already restructured Bakhtiari for this season, the cap ramifications for trading him are minimal. The elephant in the room is his $40.583M cap number for 2024. The other issue is his injury history and the risk moving forward about his availability, a subject that many fans have expressed opinions about in the comments.
While GM Gutekunst can obtain his medical records and speak with the Packers' medical staff, we fans are not privy to the opinions of the Packers’ medical staff and my crystal ball is cloudy.
