GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – They added Josh Jacobs and cut Aaron Jones, and the Green Bay Packers aren’t done making big moves yet after reportedly signing safety Xavier McKinney to a four-year deal.

The 2020 second-round selection from Alabama had pretty solid grades overall for the 2023 regular season. According to Pro Football Focus, McKinney’s 94 solo tackles were third in the NFL, and PFF gave him an 87.8 grade.

Former Packers safety Darnell Savage agreed to a three-year deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars, so Green Bay’s move to make a splash securing McKinney is huge for the team.

For the latest on the Green Bay Packers:

A lot has happened in the past 12 hours for the Packers, as the team has seen several players depart, such as Savage, Jon Runyan, Aaron Jones, and David Bakhtiari.

However, this is the most active the Packers have been in free agency in a few years, adding Jacobs and McKinney.
