Three players have signed reserve or future contracts with the Green Bay Packers for the 2024 season: inside linebacker Christian
Young, outside linebacker Deandre Johnson, and outside linebacker Deslin Alexandre. This information was reported by ESPN’s Rob
Demovsky. Reserve/future contracts are short-term agreements usually designated for players on the practice squad who are now or
have been, and they don’t count against the salary cap or roster count until the start of the following league year.
On Monday, Johnson and Alexandre were brought in for training. It was anticipated that the two pass rushers may have helped the
Packers with their post-Kingsley Enagbare rotation during the playoffs, but it looks like we won’t be able to watch live plays from
either of them until the summer.
Young is a hybrid inside linebacker/safety who was traded by the Seattle Seahawks to the Green Bay Packers. The hybrid defender has
experience in defensive coordinator Joe Barry’s scheme because he spent some time this season on the Packers practice squad. Now,
The issue that remains very much unanswered is whether Barry will return the following year.
In any case, the Packers also worked out two stars from the CFL last week, so more reserve/future agreements may be forthcoming.
The young players on the practice squad should sign a flurry of reserve and future contracts after the team’s postseason run concludes.
