Wide receiver Packers should target in free agency: Marvin Jones

Marvin Jones is another (soon to be) 31-year-old wide receiver who could draw the Packers’ eye. Unlike Hilton, however, Jones has been hitting his stride recently.

In 2020, he racked up a career-high 76 receptions for 978 yards and nine touchdowns. Jones has spent his entire career playing for losing organizations and could want to compete for a championship with his next team. That’s exactly what the Packers could offer him. Jones would be a nice compliment to the bigger receivers on the team, while still fitting general manager Brian Gutekunst’s profile for the position (he’s 6-foot-2). Jones’ addition would give Green Bay plenty of nice options at wide receiver.
