Price List

The Green Bay Packers have had some great linebackers in their storied history. Rashan Gary could be next on that list.

Recently, the Packers have seen players like Clay Matthews and A.J. Hawk walk through their doors and become staples of their defense. Rashan Gary could be the next great linebacker for the Green Bay Packers.

How Good Can Green Bay Packers OLB Rashan Gary Be?

Comparing Gary's Greatness to Clay Matthews'

Rashan Gary has already shown the impact he can have on the team. He was arguably the best player on the defense before he tore his ACL in 2022. He was on pace to set career highs in sacks, tackles, and tackles for a loss. Unfortunately, his injury prevented him from doing so, but he has been tirelessly working to make his return to football.

Clay Matthews is probably the best linebacker the Packers have had in recent memory. He is the Green Bay Packers all-time sacks leader, a two-time All-Pro, and a six-time Pro-Bowl selection. Ironically, Rashan Gary is wearing Matthews' iconic number 52. Through 10 ten seasons as a Packer, Matthews put up great numbers:

  • 143 games (15 playoffs)
  • 83.5 sacks (11.0 playoffs)
  • 482 tackles
  • 121 tackles for a loss
  • 189 quarterback hits
  • 15 forced fumbles (4 playoffs)
  • 6 interceptions
  • 41 passes defended
  • 3 touchdowns
  • 2 All-Pro selections
  • 6 Pro-Bowl selections
  • 1 Super Bowl

Through four seasons, one of which was cut short by injury, Gary has 22.5 sacks, 135 tackles, three forced fumbles and has played 56 games. Rashan Gary became a starter in 2021 and was a major part of the Packers' defense. If he stays with the Packers for as long as Matthews did, then it is not unrealistic to see his numbers stacking up with the man who wore 52 before him.

Comparing Rashan Gary's Impact to A.J. Hawk's

Unlike Matthews, A.J. Hawk was an inside linebacker. However, Hawk is still an example of another great linebacker to wear the green and gold in recent memory. Like Matthews, he was a major part of the Super Bowl defense in 2010. Hawk played nine seasons and 142 games as a Packer. During that time, he also put up great numbers:

  • 9 interceptions
  • 922 tackles
  • 55 tackles for a loss
  • 19.0 sacks
  • 4 forced fumbles
  • 1 Super Bowl

Hawk is the all-time tackles leader for the Green Bay Packers. It will be nearly impossible for Rashan Gary to reach that mark at his position. Still, when measuring him against Hawk, it will be important to look at impact. Hawk was a consistent force on the defense, and Gary has the ability to be the same.

Keisean Nixon was a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing season for the Green Bay Packers. Nixon was a contributor in more than one way for the team in 2022, but he shined as a kick returner. He was named a First Team All-Pro despite not taking over the role until November after the release of Amari Rodgers.

Keisean Nixon To Be the Green Bay Packers Swiss Army Knife

Keisean Nixon Makes Instant Impact in 2022

Nixon signed as an undrafted free agent with the Raiders in 2019 after playing college football at the University of South Carolina. After being primarily a special teams player with the Raiders, he built a familiarity with Rich Bissacia. While he was a member of the Raiders, he only logged six attempts as a kick returner.

The Green Bay Packers struggled greatly in the return game until Keisean Nixon came along. He led the league in kick return yards with 1,009 kick return yards on 32 attempts.

Not only did Nixon provide exceptional return skills, but he also showcased his ability on defense. He started four games on defense and even recorded an interception. He primarily played the nickel position on the defensive side of the ball and played a big role in the defensive turnaround in the final weeks of the season.

Nixon To Be Featured On Special Teams, Defense & Offense?

Nixon will surely begin the 2023 season as the team's primary kick returner. The team has tried different players as punt returners, but it is not out of the question for Nixon to handle punts and kickoffs. He had 11 attempts as a punt returner. He will look to make the All-Pro team for the second consecutive season as a returner.

Keisean Nixon is also set up for a bigger role on defense in 2o23. He is the team's starting nickel corner and has seen first-team reps all offseason. Nixon's athleticism allows him to keep up with quick and fast slot receivers, while Jaire Alexander and Rasul Douglas can excel as outside corners.

The most surprising part of Nixon's 2023 season may be his potential on offense. Matt LaFleur discussed getting Nixon the ball on offense back in March, but he was seen catching passes with the group when the team began practices.

"Kei’, he’s a dynamic player,” LaFleur said via Packers.com. “I was joking with him, I said, ‘Hey, you never know, there might be some opportunities offensively.’ And I know he was fired up to hear that. For us, it truly is. If he can handle it, I’ve got no problem putting him in there in some situations on offense. But got to make sure that we take care of that nickel spot first and foremost and continue to progress as a returner.”

New York Jets Wide Receiver Allen Lazard has had a decorated football career thus far. He was a standout high school player at Urbandale High School in Urbandale, Iowa. He still holds the school records for receptions (105), receiving yards (2,349), touchdowns (34), and interceptions (14).

For his achievements, he was named USA Today's All-American, Des Moines Register Offensive Player of the Year in 2013, Defensive Player of the Year in 2012, and a three-time All-State Selection. A four-star recruit out of Urbandale. Lazard continued his football career at Iowa State.

With his talent, Lazard helped reshape the Iowa State program. Now that he's enjoyed a successful NFL career, is he the best current player from the Iowa State Cyclones?

Where Allen Lazard Ranks Among Active Iowa State NFL Players

8) AJ Klein (LB)

A Wisconsin native, AJ Klein played for the Cyclones from 2009-2012, and he was one of the best defensive players in Iowa State history. In 2011, he won Big 12 Co-Defensive Player of the Year and First-Team All-Big 12 after he led Iowa State with 116 tackles and 7.5 tackles for loss.

During his senior season, Klein again won First-Team All-Big 12 after he finished the year with 117 tackles. In total, Klein tallied 361 tackles for Iowa State and still holds the Iowa State record with four defensive touchdowns.

7) Will McDonald IV (LB)

Another Wisconsin native, Will McDonald IV, the conference named him First-Team All-Big 12 three times (2020-2022). They also awarded him Big-12 Co-Defensive Lineman of the Year in 2021, in which he tied for the Big 12 lead in sacks with 11.5 that season.

Nobody of recent memory on the defensive side had a better career than McDonald IV. He finished his college career with 125 tackles, 40.5 tackles for loss, and a school-record 34.0 sacks.

Following his stellar college career, the New York Jets selected McDonald IV in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

6) Xavier Hutchinson (WR)

Xavier Hutchinson began his career at Blinn College, where in two years, he had 58 receptions for 961 yards and seven touchdowns before transferring to Iowa State.

Hutchinson burst onto the scene by winning Big-12 Newcomer of the Year in 2020, and his career at Iowa took off from there as Hutchinson was awarded First-Team All-Big 12 three times (2020-22).

In 2021, Iowa State's single-season reception record with 83. For his final season at Iowa State, Hutchinson had 107 receptions, 1,171 yards, and six touchdowns in 12 games for the Cyclones. In 37 career games for the Cyclones, Hutchinson had 254 receptions, 2,929 yards and 15 touchdowns.

The Houston Texans selected in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

5) Charlie Kolar (TE)

Charlie Kolar was one of the most decorated tight ends in Iowa State history. He was named All-Big 12 First-Team three times (2019-2021).

In 2021, Kolar won the William V. Campbell Award. The award signifies a combination of academics, community service, and on-field performance. Kolar had 168 receptions, 2,181 yards, and 23 touchdowns in 43 career games for the Cyclones.

The Baltimore Ravens selected Kolar in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft.

4) Breece Hall (RB)

At Iowa State, Breece Hall helped reshape the Iowa State program by becoming one of the most productive running backs in ISU history. He won Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year in 2020 and 2021 after back-to-back seasons of over 1,000 yards and 23 total touchdowns and was awarded 2x First-Team All-Big 12 in 2020 and 2021.

Hall had 3,933 yards, 50 touchdowns, and 82 receptions for 734 yards and six touchdowns for his career at Iowa State.

Drafted by the New York Jets in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, he played in seven games for the Jets before a knee injury prematurely ended his season.

3) David Montgomery (RB)

David Montgomery played for Cyclones from 2016-2018. He broke out in 2017. He was named First- Team All American by PFF and First-Team All-Big 12 with a season of 1,146 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 36 receptions for 296 yards. In 2018, Montgomery had four straight games rushing for over 100 yards and finished the season with 1,216 yards and 13 rushing touchdowns.

The Chicago Bears selected Montgomery in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He spent four years in Chicago before signing a three-year $18 million contract with the Detroit Lions on March 16.

2) Allen Lazard (WR)

Allen Lazard is the greatest receiver to come out of Iowa State. He lived up to the billing of being a highly-touted recruit coming to a sleeping giant program under head coach Matt Campbell. Lazard continued his dominance at Iowa State, where he tallied 240 catches, 3,360 yards, and 26 touchdowns in 48 career games for the Cyclones. Lazard was named Second-Team All-Big 12 in 2015 and First-Team All-Big 12 in 2016 and 2017.

After his career at Iowa State, Lazard went undrafted in the 2018 NFL Draft. He was immediately signed to the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad. He remained there until Green Bay signed him to their practice squad in 2018.

Lazard spent five seasons in Green Bay, becoming a favorite target of future Hall-of-Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Lazard contributed to a top-five offense in Rodgers' two MVP seasons. In Green Bay, Lazard totaled 169 catches, 2,236 yards, and 20 touchdowns in 57 games played.

Before the start of the 2023 season, Lazard joined the New York Jets on a four-year $44 million contract.

1) Brock Purdy (QB)

Nobody has had a bigger impact on the Iowa State program than a four-year starter, Brock Purdy. He was a three-time All-Big 12 quarterback with 32 school records, including passing (81) and total touchdowns (100). He completely revitalized the Iowa State program.

The San Francisco 49ers then drafted Purdy with the final pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He started the season as a third-string quarterback before injuries thrust him into the starting role. Purdy started the final five games of the season. He went a perfect 5-0 and led the 49ers to an NFC Championship Game appearance.

Brock Purdy had a stellar football career at Iowa State, and he's continuing that excellence in the NFL.

An Iowa State Reunion in New York

With the signing of Allen Lazard and the drafting of Breece Hall in 2022 and Will McDonald IV, a reunion of sorts has taken place for the New York Jets. McDonald IV and Hall never played with Lazard at Iowa State, but they were all accomplished players heading into the NFL. Playing with Aaron Rodgers has to be a special moment for all of them.

Allen Lazard & Xavier Hutchinson: The Wide Receiver connection

Xavier Hutchinson and Allen Lazard have one similarity: both were decorated receivers at Iowa State. Both are expected to be key targets for their quarterbacks this season, too. Hutchinson for rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud and Lazard for Aaron Rodgers. But one thing is certain. They both helped change the football landscape at Iowa State.

Join us this Saturday August 19, 2023 for a PUBLIC Autograph Event with Hall of Famer and Packers Legend LeRoy Butler! The autograph signing will take place from 4:3op - 6p at Stadium View Bar & Grill in Green Bay before the Packers pre season game.

Pricing: ALL autographs are $60 each.  Inscription up to three words is an additional $15  (Please note inscriptions will not be added to previously signed items)

Photos with Mr. Butler in his HOF Jacket are $50 with your camera/phone. Photo with him and autograph are separate.

Items will be available for purchase on site and pricelist are as follows. Does not include autograph.

The Green Bay Packers are the only franchise in sports that allows fans to have ownership of the team. The Packers are actually owned by their fans and recently went through a stock sale in 2021. Fans who purchase "stock" in the team do not actually earn any profit, but they earn the right to go to shareholder meetings and vote on certain aspects of the team. One of these aspects is who joins the board of directors.

LeRoy Butler Named to the Packers Board of Directors

At the annual shareholders meeting, the Packers presented four names as nominees to be voted onto the board of directors: LeRoy Butler, Laurie Radke, Sachin Shivaram and Christopher Stiles. Butler was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2022, and in 2023, he was subsequently officially named to the Packers Shareholders Board of Directors. He posted on social media following the assignment.

I love coming to thank all fans and shareholders ⁦@packers⁩ to say how much we love and respect our fans worldwide! Truly America's Team! In my opinion!! #GoPackGo pic.twitter.com/16U2ZfJ5pz

— leroy butler (@leap36) July 24, 2023

Butler was excited, to say the least. He talked to Spectrum News 1 after he was named to the board.

"I never really thought I would ever get into the Hall of Fame. I never really thought about being on the board of directors, but my mom, she said, that's what you got to expect, things like this."

Butler is obviously a prominent name in Green Bay. He was certainly a key contributor in bringing a championship to the organization in the 1996 season. That fact is not lost on Green Bay Packers president Mark Murphy.

"I can't say enough about how much he means to the organization. A player like that, who stayed in the area, is a prominent figure, not only a successful player, a Hall of Fame player, but has gone on to do great things with his life. Yeah, actually we were talking about it coming off the field. Hopefully, people like Dexter McNabb and LeRoy are role models for our current players that football doesn't last forever."

- Mark Murphy to Spectrum News 1

Butler is now in a position to make an even bigger impact in both the community and on the team. Butler is looking at his position as an opportunity to inspire members of the community in Green Bay while also making an impact on the organization that helped make him a Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee.

"I want kids to look like me. Special needs kids, African-Americans in the projects, single family home in poverty, saying, 'one day you can do this.' And I appreciate that. So, I'm kind of like the beacon of light for the kids that want to do great things on and off the field. With this kind of platform, I could really help the people in the Wisconsin area. And then, we want to grow to show other teams how you connect with your fans.”

-LeRoy Butler

Josiah Deguara was born on Feb. 14, 1997, in Santa Rosa, Calif. Deguara attended Folsom High School in Folsom, Calif., where he was a standout football player. He earned MaxPreps California Division I honors at TE and grabbed Sacramento Bee First-Team All-Metro Honors as a hybrid in 2014.

Deguara tallied 240 receptions for 3,274 yards and 42 touchdowns in high school. A two-star recruit, Deguara committed to play at Cincinnati.

2023 Expectations For Green Bay Packers Tight End Josiah Deguara

Josiah Deguara Bears Down With the Cats

Deguara had a productive career at Cincinnati. His 92 catches are the most in school history for a tight end, and he was the second tight end in school history to have 500 or more yards receiving. Travis Kelce was the other, as he had 722 yards in 2012.

He averaged almost 13 yards per catch (12.9) and became only the second tight end in school history to exceed 1,000 yards for his career (1,117), along with Brent Celek (1,135).

In 2018, Deguara earned second-team All-AAC honors with 38 receptions, 468 yards, and five touchdowns in 13 games. A year later, Deguara earned first-team All-AAC honors, as he had 39 catches for 504 yards and seven touchdowns in 13 games.

Professional Career

The Green Bay Packers drafted Deguara in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Deguara was drafted as an H-back player in the offense, where he's lined up as tight end and fullback.

Deguara has 39 catches for 371 yards and two touchdowns in 35 games in his career so far.

Expectations for Josiah Deguara in 2023

Deguara is the most experienced tight end on the roster. He adds not only a blocking element but an option for Quarterback Jordan Love to throw to over the middle. Deguara has a lot of experience in the Packers' system that will benefit Jordan Love and rookie tight ends Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft.

Head Coach Matt LaFleur thinks Deguara can take on a bigger role in the 2023 season, according to Bill Huber of Sports Illustrated:

"He's a guy that has a lot of versatility in terms of whether he's in the backfield, whether he's in a wing position, we can split him out, so it's just him getting those opportunities and then taking advantage of them."

Deguara said he's excited to step into a leadership role this season when speaking with Huber:

"The No. 1 thing is just gratitude," Deguara said. "Try to relay that to them and just be grateful for being here each and every day. When you're a young guy, you don't really get it. Even me, being in one spot for all four years is a blessing. I'm just grateful to show up here every day... It's definitely a change, there's no doubt about it. I'm trying to step up as a leader because I had Big Dog (Marcedes Lewis) and Bobby (Robert Tonyan) the first three years of my career and now I'm the oldest guy in the room. I'm the leader and I'm trying to step into that position with Tyler (Davis) and trying to lead these young guys and do as many good things as we've done the last few years, continue that tradition, and continue the standard in the room." (Via Bill Huber of Sports Illustrated).

The Wisconsin Badgers Football team has made its bones off getting under-the-radar talent. This year is no different, as three Badgers were selected in the 2023 NFL Draft. Nick Herbig (Steelers), Keeanu Benton (Steelers), and Joe Tippmann (Jets) were the three Badgers selected.

These three were highly touted coming out of high school, and it should come as no surprise that they played at a top-tier football school before being selected into the NFL.

Let's take a look at the football careers (so far) of these three rookies.

Three Rookies From the Wisconsin Badgers To Watch in the NFL (2023)

Nick Herbig (Outside Linebacker, Pittsburgh Steelers)

Herbig hails from Kauai, Hawaii, where he was a top-tier high school player for Saint Louis High School in Honolulu, Hi.

Herbig was a four-star recruit coming out of high school. He was a two-time all-state selection and won All-Hawaii Defensive Player of the Year as a senior in 2019. Herbig helped lead Saint Louis High School to four consecutive Open Division State Championships and earned an invitation to the 2020 Polynesian Bowl. He committed to the Badgers in 2019.

In three years playing for the Wisconsin Badgers, he had 134 tackles, 36 tackles for loss, and 21 sacks in 31 games played. The media named Herbig First-Team All-Big Ten, Second-Team All-American, Walter Camp Second-Team All-American, and Associated Press third-team All-American.

The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Herbig in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Keeanu Benton (Defensive Tackle, Pittsburgh Steelers)

Benton attended Janesville Craig High School in Janesville, Wisc., where he was a standout football player. Media named Benton first-team All-State as a senior, all-region, and All-Big Eight Conference. In addition, the Janesville Gazette named him All-Area Player of the Year. He committed to play at Wisconsin in 2018.

In his four years with the Wisconsin Badgers Football Team, Benton had 81 tackles and nine sacks in 39 games played. In 2021, the conference named Benton All-Big Ten second-team and All-Big Ten honorable mention. Last season, the conference named him All-Big Ten Third Team.

The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Benton in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Joe Tippmann (Center, New York Jets)

Tippman was a four-star recruit at Bishop Dwenger High School in Fort Wayne, Ind. The media named him Indiana's Mr. Football offensive lineman as a senior and Indiana Football Coach Association All-State Top 50 as a junior and senior. He won first-team all-state by Associated Press and First-Team All-Summit athletic conference and won league MVP as a senior.

As a senior, Tippman was team captain and helped lead Bishop Dwenger's Class 4A State Championship. Tippmann committed to Wisconsin in 2017.

In his final two years at Wisconsin, Tippmann started at center, where he was an All-Big Ten honorable mention. He helped pave the way for Wisconsin Badgers Running Back Braelon Allen to have back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons.

The New York Jets selected Tippmann in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Wisconsin Badgers Football Is Top-Notch at Developing NFL-Ready Talent

As a football program, the Wisconsin Badgers have done a great job of developing NFL talent. The Steelers have four defensive players on their roster who went to Wisconsin, and it's because Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin says it's a stylistic match between Wisconsin and Pittsburgh. Tomlin met with reporters after the NFL Draft and said the two teams play a similar brand of football.

"Sometimes a place like Wisconsin is a stylistic match. I've always had a lot of respect for Jim Leonard their former coordinator. They do a lot of similar things that we do and so it makes it an easy evaulation. It's less speculation in terms of what they might be able to do in our system of football," Via the Steelers YouTube.

Tippmann, meanwhile, gets to play with legendary Quarterback Aaron Rodgers. You can't ask to learn from a better teammate or player than Rodgers.

These three guys have played exemplary football throughout their high school and college careers but now get to play for three historic franchises.

Jaire Alexander came into the NFL in 2018 and has talked the talk since day one. However, in the NFL, talking the talk isn't enough. Jaire Alexander has backed it up every step of the way. He has been named to two All-Pro teams and has also been selected to two Pro Bowls.

The Packers have hit on their first-round pick, and Jaire Alexander is undoubtedly one of the best corners in the entire league. But where exactly does he stack up amongst the NFL's best?

Where does Jaire Alexander Rank Among NFL CBs?

Other Top Corners

It has been a long time since the Packers have had a corner that is in the conversation to be the best in the entire league. Other candidates for the top spot are Jalen Ramsey of the Miami Dolphins, Sauce Gardner of the New York Jets, Darius Slay of the Philadelphia Eagles and Patrick Surtain II of the Broncos.

All of the top defensive backs have the accolades and stats to hold the title of best corner in the NFL. In 2022, the First Team All-Pro corners were Sauce Gardner and Patrick Surtain II. Jaire Alexander was named to the Second All-Pro team. Alexander, however, set a career-high with five interceptions in 2022.

Why Jaire Deserves the Top Spot

Jaire Alexander is one of the few players on this list who doesn't get to play as much man coverage as others. This is not because Jaire isn't capable but rather because Green Bay's scheme doesn't call for it. The Packers play a lot of zone coverage and rarely let corners travel or follow. However, toward the end of the season, the Packers' defense started playing more man-to-man coverage and Alexander continued to shine.

Perhaps his most memorable moment of the 2022 season was when he went toe to toe with Justin Jefferson in a must-win game for the Packers. Jaire Alexander talked a lot of trash heading into the week 17 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. He backed it up by holding Jefferson without a catch when they were matched up against each other.

Jefferson set the league on fire this year with a phenomenal season. Jaire Alexander put that fire out in week 17, but Jefferson wasn't the only wideout who couldn't crack the code against Alexander.

Jaire Alexander can perform against the best wide receivers on a weekly basis. He does not get as many opportunities in man coverage as other top DBs. If he were to play in a defense where he gets to shadow the opposing team's No. 1 weekly, maybe he would get more attention from All-Pro voters.

The Green Bay Packers season is quickly approaching, and summer work has already started. Obviously, all eyes are on Jordan Love as he steps into the starting role after Aaron Rodgers was traded to the New York Jets. There is no way to know how the Packers will perform until the team steps foot on the field in week one, but reports stemming from OTAs and minicamps are giving fans plenty of reasons to be excited as Packers Training Camp is approaching.

Storylines From OTAs Carrying Into Packers Training Camp (2023)

Jordan Love Receiving Praise Ahead of Packers Training Camp

The Packers OTA's ended in June, but Jordan Love received plenty of high praise before the team starts training camp this week. Fans should not judge Love's performance at OTAs harshly. The season cannot be decided based on some drills and plays in the summer. However, for fans looking for any sort of update, OTAs provided plenty of clips and quotes that can showcase a little about Jordan Love's play.

 

Rookies Turning Heads

How Jordan Love plays will play a huge role in the team's success, but the impact rookies and the defense can make could make his job significantly easier. The Packers did not do much to add talent in free agency and opted to build through the draft. The team added some names who could make an impact immediately. Lukas Van Ness is one of those names.

The Packers are looking to get Rashan Gary back in 2023, but he may need some time to get back to %100 after tearing his ACL. The team added athletic pass rusher Lukas Van Ness and he is looking as advertised.

While Van Ness will make an impact on the defensive side of the ball, the Packers added Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft on the other side of the ball. Both tight ends will have a chance to play early, as the Packers' tight end room is not very deep. Tyler Davis and Josiah Deguara have the inside track to playing time, but both rookie tight ends also have the ability to make an impact. They both bring a combination of speed and side to the table.

Packers quarterback Jordan Love also seemed to like what he saw from one of his new targets. Luke Musgrave has apparently picked up the offense quickly and could be a big factor to Jordan Love's success in 2023.

What's Next for the Green Bay Packers?

Packers Training camp begins this week on July 26. After that, they will have joint practices as they go through the preseason before they kick off in September against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. While the team is still a couple of months away from the start of the season, it is quickly approaching.
