Green Bay Packers defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery likes the look of his position group, especially after adding Jarran Reed in free agency, but there’s a certain type of player he’d like to get from the 2022 NFL draft.
“You’d love to add a high-level third-down pass rusher,” Montgomery said Tuesday. “A little bit more twitchy of a guy that can add to the rush from the inside standpoint.”
Montgomery and the Packers thought they had a twitchy interior pass-rusher in Kingsley Keke, but he was released last year after a falling out with the team. Za’Darius Smith was another valuable inside rusher who departed Green Bay after being released in March.
