After seven years in Green Bay, the Packers released Jaire Alexander this offseason. They were unable to agree on a restructured contract, and Alexander has a previous history of injuries.
That was enough for the Packers to part ways with the two-time Pro Bowler. It didn’t take long for Alexander to find a new home for the 2025 season. Less than two weeks after his release from Baltimore, Jaire Alexander signed a one-year, $6 million deal with the Ravens. Speaking with the media at training camp, Alexander said he’s “in a great place” with Baltimore for the 2025 season.

With the 18th pick in the 2018 NFL draft, the Green Bay Packers selected Jaire Alexander out of Louisville. In seven years with the Packers, Alexander played in 78 games and made 76 starts. Unfortunately, the CB had several injuries derail his playing time over the last four seasons. Jaire Alexander played in seven or fewer games in three of the last four years. When healthy, Alexander was a difference-maker for the Packers.
However, they decided to part ways with the former first-round pick in June. He ends his Packers career with 12 interceptions, 287 combined tackles, and 70 passes defended. After he was released by Green Bay. Alexnader was quickly picked up by Baltimore. They gave Alexander a one-year, $6 million deal. A potential low-risk, high-reward scenario for the Ravens. If Alexander stays healthy in 2025, they have a major discount on one of the league’s top CBs.
