The Green Bay Packers are releasing two-time Pro Bowler and two-time second-team All-Pro cornerback Jaire Alexander, according to reports Monday morning.
The 28-year-old has played a combined 14 games across the 2023 and 2024 seasons, as he has struggled with injuries.
Alexander signed a four-year, $22 million contract extension in 2022. He and Green Bay explored trade options this offseason before he was then asked to restructure his contract and take a pay cut ahead of the upcoming season.
Alexander seemingly did not want to restructure his deal, and now came the decision to cut ties.

Before his injuries, Alexander had been one of the league’s premier defensive backs since he joined the Packers as a first-round pick in 2018.
In 2020, he reached his first Pro Bowl and received his first second-team All-Pro nod. He earned the same honors in 2022 after an injury-plagued 2021 season.
