The Green Bay Packers want to win a Super Bowl, just like every other team in the NFL.

This offseason, they paid a small price that they feel might help get them there.

For just $1.5 million, the Packers signed Mecole Hardman.

The speedy receiver and return man has played 89 of his 94 NFL games for the Chiefs. He knows winning.

“Just being able to have that experience — I actually have gone to the end game — and having to win it, I think that goes a long way, especially for the younger guys to see that,” Hardman told The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman. “I’m glad I can give that experience to them and let them know what it took and what it’s going to take.”

The Packers have a super crowded receiver room, and Hardman is the oldest of the bunch among Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks and rookies Matthew Golden and Savion Williams.

Hardman’s best chance to get on the field might be in the return game.

“Hey, I ain’t gonna lie. I didn’t know I was gonna be the oldest in the room,” Hardman told reporters. “I’m getting old, man. Year 7 is getting crazy. But I think just being able to get there, and the work that was put in to get there; I think just being able to relate that to the guys, especially when times get hard or you’re not feeling so well, or you’re hurting or whatever.”

No matter what Hardman’s final role ends up being, it was a smart addition by Green Bay.

They didn’t have to pay much in the grand scheme of NFL money, and they added a huge leadership presence.
