Packers' Jaire Alexander: Candidate to be traded
The Green Bay Packers have had conversations about trading Jaire Alexander (knee) this offseason, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Alexander is one of the league's premier cornerbacks when healthy, but injuries have limited him to just 14 regular-season games and two postseason appearances over the past two years. The two-time Pro Bowler is currently working his way back from a knee procedure he underwent in early January. Alexander has two years remaining on his contract, but since he carries cap hits north of $25 million in both seasons, any team interested in trading for the 28-year-old would likely be motivated to restructure his deal.

Packers' Jaire Alexander: Landing on IR
Green Bay is placing Jaire Alexander (knee) on injured reserve, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Alexander underwent a knee scope early this week, so it's no surprise that he's being moved to IR. Per Rapoport, the veteran cornerback will be eligible to rejoin the Green Bay Packers if they make the Super Bowl, though it's unclear if he'll be fully recovered by that point. Alexander played in just seven regular-season games for the second consecutive campaign, and he's participated in that number of contests or fewer three of the past four regular seasons. He'll finish 2024 with 16 tackles (15 solo) and seven pass defenses, including two interceptions -- one of which was a pick-six.

Jaire Alexander underwent arthroscopic right knee surgery Tuesday, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN.Alexander hasn't played since Week 11, and he ultimately elected to have surgery to reduce the pain and swelling in his knee. Schefter notes that the star cornerback could be able to return for the Super Bowl if Green Bay advances that far. Expect the Green Bay Packers to place Alexander on injured reserve prior to Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Bears. Carrington Valentine will likely continue to work in a starting role at cornerback while Alexander is sidelined.
