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

With the decision now made to release the 28-year-old star cornerback, Alexander will finish his Green Bay career with 78 games played, 287 total tackles, 1.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, 12 interceptions, a defensive touchdown, and 70 defended passes.

The Packers released cornerback Jaire Alexander earlier this week. It was presumed the team would spread out his dead cap hit over the next two seasons since he was a post-June 1 cut. But Matt Schneidman of TheAthletic.
