The Green Bay Packers are in strong financial position to re-sign internal free agents and aggressively pursue outside free agents when the 2025 league year opens later this month.
The Packers entered the offseason with 18 players having expiring contracts, but the Packers quickly re-signed two of their priority free agents in Isaiah McDuffie and Brandon McManus before the start of the new league year.
The important dates to know: the legal tampering period opens on Monday, March 10, while the new league year begins Wednesday, March 12.
Follow along as we track all the Packers’ moves in free agency over the next couple of weeks and months:

Re-signed by Packers
LB Isaiah McDuffie: The 25-game starter over the last two seasons returns to give the Packers a reliable player behind Quay Walker and Edgerrin Cooper at linebacker and a core special teamer for Rich Bisaccia. The deal is worth up to $9.5 million over two years, per ESPN.
K Brandon McManus: The veteran kicker connected on 20 of 21 field goals and all 30 extra points after joining the Packers in October. The deal is for three years, per ESPN, so he’ll provide valuable stability at the kicker position through the 2027 season.
