Jaire Alexander had been mentioned in a lot of rumors throughout the course of the offseason. Following the 2025 NFL Draft, it appeared that he had a pretty good chance of sticking with the Packers for at least one more year.

The Green Bay Packers officially announced the release of cornerback Jaire Alexander on Monday. The roster move was initially reported on Monday morning and is now official with the league office as of Monday afternoon. Alexander's release ends a seven-year run for Brian Gutekunst's first draft pick as general manager of the Packers.

The Packers will cut cornerback Jaire Alexander. They will gain more than $17 million in cap space and Alexander will become a free agent.

The Green Bay Packers made a significant change as they released star cornerback Jaire Alexander Monday after seven seasons with the team. The two sides had been exploring trade options throughout the offseason, but nothing came to fruition and ultimately the Packers decided to move on.

The Dolphins keep trying to trade cornerback Jalen Ramsey. The availability of a younger and arguably better player as a free agent could make that task harder to accomplish. Former Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander is now available as a free agent. He can be signed without sending anything to his team.
