The Green Bay Packers are still one of the youngest rosters in the entire NFL. Since General Manager Brian Gutekunst took over 7 seasons ago he has drafted 72 players in the NFL Draft. The downside of drafting so many players, is that at some point you have to choose which players to keep and which to let go. Tough decisions will be ahead in the 2026 NFL offseason for the Packers GM. Today we will dive into 3 Packers playing their final seasons in Green Bay.
Romeo Doubs
Our first of 3 Packers playing their final season in Green Bay is Wide Receiver Romeo Doubs. Doubs has been a key contributor to the Green Bay Packers offense since being drafted alongside fellow WR Christian Watson in the 2022 NFL Draft. In his time in Green Bay the WR has compiled 147 catches, 1700 yards, and 15 touchdowns. An average of 49 catches, 567 yards and 5 touchdowns is just not enough production to justify a second contract in Green Bay. A big part of the production for Doubs is the injuries, most notably his concussion history. Football is a dangerous sport, on any play your season can end. Head injuries are arguably the scariest injuries to watch. The production and injury history most likely could cost Romeo Doubs a spot on the 2026 roster.
Sean Rhyan
Second of 3 Packers playing their final season in Green Bay is Guard Sean Rhyan. With 2024 1st round pick Jordan Morgan and 2025 second rounder Anthony Belton in the fold in 2025, Rhyan may be expendable. Morgan was presumably drafted to be a future Left Tackle replacing Rasheed Walker. There have been rumblings the Packers may offer Rasheed Walker a 2nd contract in Green Bay. General Manager Brian Gutekunst may not be completely sold on that idea. That could force the Packers to keep Morgan at Guard. Anthony “Escalade” Belton is a mammoth of a man also in the shuffle to replace Sean Rhyan. Jacob Monk has also taken a step forward and earned more opportunities in the backup Center rotation. The abundance of talent in the Offensive Line room, 2025 may be Sean Rhyan’s final season in Green Bay.
Kenny Clark
The surprise of our 3 Packers playing their final season in Green Bay is Defensive Tackle Kenny Clark. Not many players in Green Bay have the luxury of earning a 3rd contract with the team. Clark is one of those players that did, with a cap hit of $31.37 million in 2026. Such a high salary cap hit already makes Clark a prime candidate to be released after the 2025 season. On top of the cap hit in 2026, 2024 was not exactly a productive season for Clark. 1 sack, 37 combined tackles(20 solo) and 4 TFL is not the type of numbers Green Bay hoped for after awarding Clark with his contract extension. Kenny Clark did have foot surgery in January. Clark will need to bounce back in a big way to give himself a chance to stay on the Green Bay roster in 2026. The $14.35 million in cap savings by releasing Clark may be too much for the Packers to overlook.
