A lot of the same names are being mentioned as breakout players in 2020 – and for good reasons – but keep your eyes on these three under the radar breakout candidates for the Green Bay Packers.

With not much spending power, it was a fairly quiet offseason for the Green Bay Packers. And the additions that they did make were veterans who to their credit have had NFL success, but they are either coming off injuries or a poor 2019 season.

Take that, and couple it with a draft that threw everyone for a loop, and then add in the fact that many did not think the Packers were as good as their 2019 record indicated, and you could be left wondering whether or not this team is actually better in 2020.

And on paper, they might not be. But that also doesn’t mean a whole lot either.

In order for this Green Bay Packers team to improve and hopefully make their way back to the Super Bowl, they are relying on internal development from several of their younger players. This year’s crop of breakout candidates that everyone has their eyes on includes Allen Lazard, Jace Sternberger, Kingsley Keke, and Rashan Gary.

Certainly, all are valid choices and all are players that will need to take a step forward this season.

However, I think there are a couple of players flying under the radar that could make a big impact this season in addition to the group already mentioned. And while the players on this list are all well-known, I do believe that they have been forgotten about, which is what lands them here.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at three under the radar breakout candidates for the upcoming season.
