Packers Turn to Inexperienced CBs Following Rasul Douglas’ Departure
The Green Bay Packers are facing a cornerback dilemma as they prepare to face the Los Angeles Rams. The trade of veteran Rasul Douglas to the Buffalo Bills has left the Packers relying on inexperienced players such as Carrington Valentine and Corey Ballentine. The team is also dealing with injuries to first-round draft pick Eric Stokes and star cornerback Jaire Alexander. The Packers will need Valentine, Ballentine, and other young players to step up and make an impact against the Rams’ talented receiving tandem of Cooper Kupp and rookie Puka Nacua. The defense is looking to bounce back after allowing the Minnesota Vikings to convert on third downs in their previous game.
