Jahri Evans Reportedly Agrees to Packers Contract After 11 Seasons with Saints

The Green Bay Packers and guard Jahri Evans reportedly agreed to terms Wednesday on a deal for the 2017 season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN.com's Rob Demovsky.

The terms of Evans' contract were not immediately disclosed.

Evans, 33, spent the last 11 seasons with the New Orleans Saints. During that stretch, he was a six-time Pro Bowler and four-time All-Pro.

The move fills a glaring need for the Packers, who were in need of reinforcements at right guard after T.J. Lang bolted for the Detroit Lions in free agency.
