Rapoport followed up to report the Packers and Alexander agreed to see what trade avenues they might have and considered restructuring his contract. Albert Breer of The MMQB reported in April the two-time Pro Bowler preferred an outright release so he'd have more freedom in choosing his next team.

In response to the report, Alexander's father, Landis Alexander, fired back with a shot at the report and the team. He made it clear that his son was willing to discuss a pay cut, but was not willing to play nearly for free.

The Packers have made the interesting decision to absorb all of Jaire Alexander's cap in the current league year.
