Jaire Alexander is Stepping Away from Football

Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Jaire Alexander has decided to step away from football. Alexander wants to get himself right physically and mentally before deciding on his future. He was traded to the Eagles in the beginning of November after playing two games for the Baltimore Ravens. Alexander has been a healthy scratch ever since joining the Eagles roster. It's unclear if the former Pro Bowl defensive back will actually return to football. He hasn't played a full season since 2022, so it's probably best for him to rest and get himself back to normal physically.

Jaire Alexander Inks One-Year Deal with Ravens

Veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander signed a one-year deal worth up to $6 million with the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. By landing with Baltimore, he reunites with his college teammate, Lamar Jackson (Louisville). Alexander spent the first seven years of his professional career with the Green Bay Packers after being selected with the No. 18 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. Over 78 career games, he logged 287 tackles (240 solo), 12 interceptions, 70 pass deflections, three forced fumbles, and 1.5 sacks. The two-time Pro Bowler has missed 20 games over the last two seasons, which is a primary reason the Packers were ready to move on. Alexander joins a strong defensive back room featuring Marlon Humphrey, Kyle Hamilton, Nate Wiggins, and first-round rookie Malachi Starks. If he can stay healthy and provide high-end cornerback play, this could be the league's most talented secondary.

Packers Release Jaire Alexander

The Green Bay Packers are releasing star cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) on Monday, sources tell NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The Packers were open to bringing Alexander back in 2025, but the two sides were unable to work anything out, and the two-time Pro Bowler will now hit the open market. The move to release Alexander will save the Packers around $17.1 million of the $24.6 million salary cap hit that he carried for this season. The 28-year-old defensive back missed time last year with a knee injury and has only played in 14 total games over the last two seasons, which was a big part of the reason the Packers are moving on. He's still on the right side of 30, though, so Alexander could bounce back as one of the better corners in the league if he's able to get healthy again. Alexander shouldn't linger too long on the open market before finding employment elsewhere.

Packers Propose Contract Restructure for Jaire Alexander

The Green Bay Packers have proposed a restructured contract to cornerback Jaire Alexander, a source with knowledge of the situation tells The Athletic's Matt Schneidman. It shows the team's interest in retaining the two-time All-Pro defensive back in an offseason in which they've been open to trading him. The 28-year-old wants to remain in Green Bay, but he and his agent have not agreed to the restructure yet. He has two years left on a then-record contract he signed in 2022 for $21 million annually. Alexander has the third-highest salary cap number on the team this year at around $24.6 million. The reason the Packers have been ready to move on is the fact that Alexander has played in 16 of a potential 37 games the last two years due to four different injuries and a one-game suspension. He has not reported for any voluntary offseason workouts but plans to attend mandatory minicamp in early June.

Jaire Alexander Not Participating In Voluntary Offseason Work

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed that cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) is not taking part in the team's voluntary offseason program. "I just know we're trying to work through it," LaFleur said. Alexander took part in the team's remote sessions last week, but it's not a big surprise that he's not doing any physical activities yet after having offseason surgery to fix a PCL tear in his right knee. Although it's unclear if the veteran defensive back will even be back in Green Bay for the 2025 season, a report surfaced earlier this week that the two sides continue to discuss a resolution to keep him in town. Alexander has $24.6 million and $27 million salary cap hits over the next two seasons, which is likely why he hasn't been traded. The former 18th overall pick in 2018 out of Louisville is a two-time Pro Bowler but has played in just 14 games the last two seasons due to injuries.

Packers, Jaire Alexander Continue To Discuss Potential Reunion

The Green Bay Packers and cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) continue to talk about a possible resolution this offseason, which could include a reconciliation to where Alexander plays for the Packers again in 2025, a source tells ESPN's Rob Demovsky. All options remain on the table, including a release, trade or re-signing. Despite the fact that the 28-year-old defensive back could still be released, Alexander took part in the team's virtual offseason program last week, potentially signaling that he's leaning toward returning. The two-time Pro Bowler has played in only 14 regular-season games the last two years due to injuries and missed the final eight games in 2024 due to a knee injury that required surgery in December. The Packers could use the former first-rounder (18th overall) back, but he's unlikely to return to his Pro Bowl form given all of his recent injuries.

Packers Remain Committed To Trading Jaire Alexander, Have Received Interest

The Green Bay Packers have received trade interest for veteran cornerback Jaire Alexander, but no deal is imminent with just over a week to go before the 2025 NFL Draft. The team is committed to finding a deal for Alexander rather than cutting him, but attempts to shop the Pro Bowler have been unsuccessful thus far. A deal could take place following the draft if a team does not land one of the cornerbacks on their board. Alexander, a former first-round pick out of Louisville in the 2018 NFL Draft, has tallied 287 tackles (240 solo), 1.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, 12 interceptions, and 70 pass deflections in 78 games. He is a two-time All-Pro selection but injuries have caused him to miss 20 regular-season games over the last two years, and his best football is likely behind him.

Packers Not Ruling Out Jaire Alexander Returning

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst did not rule out the possibility of cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) returning to the team in 2025 at this week's annual league meetings. When asked about Alexander potentially remaining in Green Bay, Gutekunst said, "It could be a possibility. Absolutely." The Packers have had talks about trading the 28-year-old defensive back this offseason, though, and they hope to have a resolution on his situation before the draft at the end of April. The two-time Pro Bowler has been a big part of Green Bay's secondary in his seven years with the team since debuting in 2018, but he's played in just 14 regular-season games the last two years due to injuries and had knee surgery in January. It's unlikely that Green Bay would be able to get much for Alexander due to his injuries and the fact that he has two years left on his current deal.

Packers Open To Trading Jaire Alexander

The Green Bay Packers have had trade conversations involving Pro Bowl cornerback Jaire Alexander and are willing to trade him this offseason, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The 2018 first-round pick out of Louisville has spent his entire professional career with Green Bay, racking up 287 tackles (240 solo), 12 interceptions, 70 passes defended, three forced fumbles, and 1.5 sacks in 78 career games. However, Alexander has played in just 14 of 34 possible regular-season games over the last two seasons. The 28-year-old could be headed toward a steep decline in play, so he should not be too expensive to trade for. Still, a contending team with a significant need at cornerback could be interested in taking the flyer on the two-time All-Pro selection.

Packers Expected To Release Jaire Alexander

ESPN's Rob Demovsky writes that there are strong indications that cornerback Jaire Alexander's (knee) time with the Green Bay Packers will come to an end this offseason, as multiple team sources have expressed their frustrations with his inability to stay healthy and/or play through injuries. Alexander didn't play after Nov. 17 in 2024 and went on Injured Reserve in the final week of the regular season before undergoing knee surgery for a torn PCL. He has appeared in seven of 17 regular-season games in two straight years. Alexander somehow still managed to finish second on the team in pass breakups (seven) and was tied for second with two interceptions. He has two years left on his four-year, $84 million extension, but Green Bay could pick up almost $6.8 million in salary cap space in 2025 if they release him and more than $17 million if he's a post-June 1 cut.
