Since being drafted by the Packers in the second round out of Ohio State in 2021, center Josh Myers has been a regular in the team’s starting lineup. He began as a starter in his rookie year but was sidelined by injury early on. He returned to start all 17 games in 2022 and 2023, and has started every game this season, except for Week 9 against the Lions due to injury.

Josh Myers And The Green Bay Packers Leave The Colts Feeling Ill

Offensive line coach Luke Butkus praised Myers this year, especially when he played through a serious wrist injury, calling him “a warrior” for his toughness. Despite being banged up, Myers continued to play hard and physical, although he acknowledged areas for improvement.

However, Myers’ time as a starter in Green Bay may be coming to an end. Heading into his fourth season, he has struggled with performance metrics and will be a free agent in 2025. Pro Football Focus has rated him poorly, with a grade of 50.2, ranking him 40th out of 41 centers in the NFL.

Veteran Packers writer Pete Dougherty notes that Myers’ time with the Packers is likely running out. He points out that, while Myers has had some strong seasons and become a leader on the offensive line, the Packers may not be able to retain him. They have drafted Jacob Monk, a fifth-round pick, who showed promise in camp and could be ready to step in. Dougherty also suggests the team could look into drafting a new center or shifting veterans like Elgton Jenkins or Sean Rhyan to the position.

Looking ahead, the Packers face tough decisions on their roster as they will need to manage the contracts of some of their talented young players. While they recently paid Jordan Love, key players like Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, and tight end Tucker Kraft will also need new contracts soon.

Additionally, the team will need to address gaps in the defensive backfield and defensive line, particularly at pass rusher. With some cap space clearing up from the departures of Aaron Rodgers and David Bakhtiari, the Packers are poised to make some critical decisions.
