Rumors have circulated all season that the Green Bay Packers might split ways with David Bakhtiari, a three-time Pro Bowler. On Sunday morning, it was claimed that the team plans to release him to save $20 million. While this is a painful decision, it is ultimately the greatest option for the squad and their future goals.
Green Bay Packers and NFL fans react on social media to the news.
The Green Bay Packers are poised to dismiss All-Pro offensive tackle David Bakhtiari.
When healthy DBak is a hall of fame caliber LT and even playing hurt last year he was better than most starting LT in the league. Packers are making the right decision here, his health it too much of a toss up and that money can be used elsewhere perhaps on a safety in FA.
