Underdogs to make Packers’ roster: Kobe Jones

Another position the Packers have to sort out is outside linebacker. Preston Smith and Rashan Gary are the clear starters and it appears Jonathan Garvin has earned the third spot. Everything else is up in the air.

Green Bay has several candidates for the last few spots, including Kobe Jones, Tipa Galeai, La’Darius Hamilton and Kinglsey Enagbare. Jones hasn’t been consistent, but he has flashed some potential to develop into a decent rotational player. The Packers would be wise to continue watching that development play out.
