Jason Peters

If the Packers sign someone like Nsekhe, it probably signals they expect Bakhtiari to return sooner than later. However, if they go with Jason Peters or anybody else on this list, it might be a sign they expect the player to step in at offensive tackle for a bit longer.

At the height of his career, Jason Peters was an excellent option at left tackle. He’s a two-time All-Pro and a nine-time Pro Bowler with the Buffalo Bills and Philadelphia Eagles. However, at 39-years-old, he’s barely a starting-level tackle at this point. However, that’s all Green Bay needs if they are going to roll with Bakhtiari and Turner over the long run of the 2021 season.
