While a whirlwind of moves defined a chaotic 2022 NFL trade deadline for a host of contenders chasing the postseason and rebuilding teams looking to the future, one desperate squad was curiously absent from all the madness.
I’m talking, of course, about Aaron Rodgers’ Green Bay Packers. At 3-5, in a weird season of low quality, the Packers certainly aren’t out of the NFC postseason chase. They could’ve used some sort of playmaker like, say, a Chase Claypool (who went to rival Chicago instead) that could help their 38-year-old quarterback elevate the rest of a struggling roster.
