It becomes clear that Cornerback Jaire Alexander will not be at Green Bay Packers during the 2025 season.
But whether Alexander is traded or released is still questioned.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Tuesday that Alexander is not close to being treated, although Green Bay almost traded the seven -year veteran at the beginning of the league.
However, there were two problems with trade. First, Packers asked too much in return. Secondly, Alexander was not willing to reduce wages.
Alexander has two years left on the four -year extension he signed in 2022. His base salary for 2025 is $ 16.15 million, and in 2026 it is $ 18.15 million.
If Green Bay cuts or trading Alexander with a designation after June 1, it would cost more than $ 7.5 million in dead money but with about $ 17.1 million in CAP savings, according to Over the Cap. A cut before June or would mean more than $ 17 million in dead money and about $ 7.6 million in savings.
Alexander was a second team all-pro and made Pro Bowl in both 2020 and 2022 but injuries have forced him to miss most of three of the previous four seasons. He appeared in just four matches in 2021 and seven in 2023 and ’24.
Alexander has 12 career interceptions with a height of five 2022. He also has three choices in seven playoffs.
