The Green Bay Packers will have a new-look defense in 2026. Former Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon was brought in to be the new defensive coordinator and several changes were made on the roster as well.
Rashan Gary was traded to the Dallas Cowboys and Javon Hargrave and Zaire Franklin were added in free agency. Any time new talent is brought in, it takes away spots from previous contributors.
As a result, Bill Huber of Packers On SI recently identified three notable Packers who could be traded ahead of Week 1. One of the players Huber mentioned has started 29 games over the last two seasons, but the defensive scheme change could make him expendable.
Isaiah McDuffie came into the league as a sixth-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. It's safe to say McDuffie has exceeded expectations, as he's been a multi-year starter and has given the Packers some solid production.
