Packers Discussion: How many players are roster locks in 2026?

I already got one wrong prediction on my 53-man roster projection from after the draft, as the Green Bay Packers have already swapped out backup quarterback Desmond Ridder for Tyrod Taylor.

That got me thinking: How many roster spots are truly 100 percent safe on this team right now?

Here’s my best stab at it, but I’m willing to hear arguments one way or another.

QB Jordan Love

RB Josh Jacobs

RB Chris Brooks

WR Christian Watson

WR Matthew Golden

WR Jayden Reed

WR Savion Williams

TE Tucker Kraft

TE Luke Musgrave

TE Josh Whyle

LT Jordan Morgan

LG Aaron Banks

C Sean Rhyan

RG Anthony Belton

RT Zach Tom

T/G Darian Kinnard

G/C Jager Burton

DE Devonte Wyatt

DE/NT Javon Hargrave

DE/NT Chris McClellan

DE/NT Warren Brinson

ED Micah Parsons (when healthy)

ED Lukas Van Ness

ED Danie Dennis-Sutton

ED Barryn Sorrell

LB Zaire Franklin

LB Edgerrin Cooper

LB Isaiah McDuffie

LB Ty’Ron Hopper

CB Keisean Nixon

CB Brandon Cisse

CB Carrington Valentine

CB Benjamin St-Juste

CB Domani Jackson

S Xavier McKinney

S Evan Williams

S Javon Bullard

S Kitan Oladapo

P Daniel Whelan

LS Matt Orzech

Guys I view on the “roster bubble” are:

QB Kyle McCord

RB Pierre Strong Jr.

RB Damien Martinez

WR Bo Melton

WR Skyy Moore

WR J. Michael Sturdivant

T Travis Glover

C Jacob Monk

G/C John Williams
