Summary

In today's episode of the Packernet Podcast, Ryan dives into the strange contract situations developing across the NFL — with a spotlight on TJ Watt and Trey Hendrickson. He explores why deals that once seemed automatic are now dragging on, and whether this reflects a broader trend of teams devaluing aging stars. Could the Packers be a surprise contender in the Watt sweepstakes? Ryan also fields fan calls on forgotten NFL rule changes, seasonal rankings, and how the Packers' 2024 roster looks deeper across the board. Strap in for another jam-packed offseason breakdown!
