    Packers veteran predicted to get cut despite recently joining Green Bay

    The Green Bay Packers certainly will look a lot different when Week 1 rolls around.

    The 2024 National Football League regular season somehow is just weeks away and we are about to get into one of the most difficult parts of camp. Franchises need to start trimming down rosters soon and that means a plethora of players will be cut or traded.

    These are difficult decisions that teams need to make and Green Bay will have its fair share of tough decisions to make. FanSided's Cody Williams put together a list of three players who are at risk of being cut ahead of the new season and had offensive lineman Andre Dillard on his list.

    "Another player that the Packers chose to add to the roster this offseason but this time a newcomer, Brian Gutekunst did his best to protect the integrity of the offensive line in front of Jordan Love by bringing in former first-round pick Andre Dillard to bolster the depth," Williams said. "However, since the minimally expensive addition, the hierarchy along the line has started to take shape in a way that might simply push Dillard out of the picture...

    "Even in the case of providing depth, though, Green Bay has young players like sean Rhyan, Kadeem Telfort, and others who the team appears relatively high on. There isn't a need for them to shoehorn Dillard onto the roster, especially since his versatility is less valuable to the Packers than perhaps any other franchise given that so many of their lineman possess the same movability."

    This doesn't mean that he will end up getting cut, but he is someone to watch out for over the next few weeks.
