**[Rashan Gary](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/G/GaryRa00.htm?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.profootballrumors.com&utm_campaign=2026-03-06_pfr)**‘s Packers tenure looks set to end after seven seasons. The veteran edge rusher announced ([via NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero](https://x.com/TomPelissero/status/2029991482057277914)) his time with the team is coming to an end.
Tied to a four-year, $96MM extension, Gary had played out the guaranteed portion of his contract — one that ran through the 2027 season. Gary was due an $18MM base salary in 2026. The Packers could designate the OLB as a post-June 1 cut, but they cannot do so until March 11.
Gary, 28, had been the subject of trade talks (per Pelissero) recently. The Packers would save $10.78MM with a standard release, which could take place today. They would, however, pick up $19.5MM in 2026 cap space with a post-June 1 designation. Teams are allowed two of those annually.
