K.J. Wright

If the Packers wanted to swing for the fences at inside linebacker, they could target veteran K.J. Wright. Wright is a one-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion and could bring valuable experience to that side of the ball.

Wright’s best football is behind him at 31-years-old, but he still brings tenacity and leadership to the football field. He could be a one or two year stop gap to help Barnes and Martin get better prepared while also mentoring them on and off the field. The only issue is he’d take away much-needed reps from the two youngsters.
