Despite a slow start, the Green Bay Packers aren’t hanging thier head. In the season opener in Brazil, the Philadelphia Eagles defeated Green Bay 34-29. Adding insult to injury, Jordan Love went down with an MCL injury just seconds before the end of the game.
One of Green Bay’s former players took a political stance on Tuesday.

Former Green Bay long time left tackle David Bakhtiari took to social media after Tuesday night’s presidential debate:
My thoughts after the debate:
2028 is gonna be our year.
Bakhtiari didn’t seem to think there was a winner after the debate was over.
The first week of the season has come and gone, and offensive tackle David Bakhtiari remains a free agent.Despite his two-time First-Team All-Pro status, injuries limited the two-time First-Team All-Pro to just 13 games in the past three seasons.

Although he was a reliable player when on the field, he ultimately lost his job due to his inability to stay on the field. It was difficult for teams to sign him in the offseason, but some lesser-known contract language could change that going forward.
As a vested veteran, Bakhtiari’s salary would’ve been fully guaranteed if he had been on a team’s 53-man roster on Week 1. This language, however, does not apply for the remainder of the season, which means any team can sign Bakhtiari without much risk of financial loss. There are several teams in the league that could benefit from a low-risk, high-reward tackle, including the New Orleans Saints, Carolina Panthers, and Kansas City Chiefs.
