Green Bay Packers made notable roster moves on Tuesday, trading wide receiver Romeo Doubs to the New England Patriots under a four-year, $80 million contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. This trade signals another step in the Packers’ ongoing roster adjustments as free agency approaches.
Details Surrounding Romeo Doubs’ Departure
Romeo Doubs, a fourth-round draft pick from 2022, was under a four-year contract with Green Bay before the trade. His move to the Patriots marks a significant change for the young wide receiver, who was expected to play a growing role within the Packers’ offensive scheme.
Additional Moves: Signing St-Juste and Releasing Hobbs
Ahead of free agency’s formal start, the Packers also signed cornerback Benjamin St-Juste, a former Chargers player, to a two-year deal worth $10.5 million, per NFL Network analyst Ian Rapoport. St-Juste contributed on approximately 35% of defensive snaps and special teams in Los Angeles during the last season. The 28-year-old cornerback recorded two interceptions across five NFL seasons, starting with Washington after being a 2021 third-round pick.
Conversely, the Packers released cornerback Nate Hobbs, who had been signed last year on a four-year, $48 million contract after four seasons with the Raiders. Hobbs faced challenges including a knee injury during training camp and managed only five starts in 11 games, with a career-low two pass breakups. Green Bay plans to designate Hobbs as a post-June 1 cut, which is expected to provide roughly $8 million in salary cap relief. He missed the Packers’ wild-card playoff loss to Chicago due to a medial collateral ligament tear sustained late in the season against Baltimore.
Other Reported Roster Changes in Green Bay
Additional reported departures include offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins, edge rusher Rashan Gary, who was traded to the Dallas Cowboys, and linebacker Quay Walker, who reportedly was sent to the Raiders. These moves reflect a broader restructuring effort by the Packers as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season and the official start of free agency on Wednesday.
