Early Look at Green Bay Packers 2023 Unrestricted Free Agents

Randall Cobb

After being acquired via trade last summer, Randall Cobb took a pay cut to stay with Green Bay for 2022. We will see how much Cobb’s role expands this season without Davante Adams, but in 2021, while he wasn’t targeted heavily, he oftentimes came up big on third downs and in the red zone.

On third downs, Cobb caught 12 of his 17 targets, two of which went for touchdowns, while also averaging almost 17.0 yards per catch. And of his 12 receptions, 10 went for first downs. In the red zone, he had four receptions for four touchdowns.

Cobb’s future with the team beyond 2022 likely depends on if he wants to continue playing and whether or not Aaron Rodgers returns next season.

Dean Lowry

Some — maybe many — would consider Dean Lowry a cut candidate this season since the Packers can free up $5.9 million in cap space now that we are past June 1st. However, I just don’t see that happening.

Lowry is coming off his best season in terms of pressures created, and I do believe he is someone valued highly within the organization. He may not always log a ton of stats, but he does the dirty work, taking on double-teams and occupying space. On TV, these jobs may go unnoticed, but on the football field, everyone around him benefits.

With that said, with Kenny Clark under contract and TJ Slaton and Davante Wyatt as recent draft picks, I don’t believe Lowry will be back in 2023.
