The Green Bay Packers are entering the offseason with salary cap issues and a long list of pending free agents.
General manager Brian Gutekunst must find a way to fit all the puzzle pieces together while working through a situation that requires his team to shave millions and millions off the cap before the start of the new league year in mid-March.
Among the free agents are two of the team’s three All-Pros, five of the team’s wide receivers and four of the team’s cornerbacks.
Here is the full list of free agents for the Packers entering the 2022 offseason, sorted by the percentage of snaps played during the 2021 season.
