One prominent trade option discussed is Alvin Kamara from the New Orleans Saints. Kamara, while not at his peak, remains capable and would give the Packers a playmaker behind Jacobs. ESPN’s Mike Clay highlighted Green Bay as a potential trade destination, noting the Packers’ status as a legitimate Super Bowl contender could attract Kamara if he’s open to a move. Kamara’s interest and the Saints’ willingness to trade would ultimately determine feasibility.
Kamara could still impact Green Bay’s offense as a versatile back who excels in both rushing and receiving. Last season he logged 471 rushing yards and a touchdown on 131 carries, plus 186 receiving yards on 33 catches, while 2024 featured 950 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns with 543 receiving yards and 2 scores. While not a 1,000-yard back anymore, he could function as an elite secondary option behind Jacobs, potentially making a reasonable trade target if the price is right.
Key Takeaways:
– Packers may seek running back upgrades after the 2026 draft and Emmanuel Wilson’s departure.
– Alvin Kamara is a plausible trade target discussed as a fit behind Josh Jacobs.
– Kamara’s production in recent seasons suggests value as a complementary back, though trade viability depends on his willingness to move and the Saints’ asking price.
