The Green Bay Packers have looked like two different teams this season. To start the year, there was reason for panic. Now, that all looks foolish, as the Packers are flying at 6-3 with their offense continuing to dominate.

Their rushing attack has been subpar so far this season, and former Super Bowl champion with the Packers, Greg Jennings, floated the idea of trading for Jonathan Taylor or Tony Pollard to take this team to the next level.

Greg Jennings Offers Two Potential RB Trades for Packers

The Packers were waiting to get Josh Jacobs back after he was on the Commissioner’s Exempt List for six weeks after his offseason arrest. The hope was that Jacobs would rejuvenate a dormant rushing attack; it has improved, but it’s nothing to ride home about.

Now, Jacobs has a fractured ring finger and will try to play through it, but he couldn’t grip the ball against the Patriots, leaving cause for concern.

The Packers could be putting themselves in a difficult spot if Jacobs misses extended time and they fail to add another running back. MarShawn Lloyd, Pierre Strong Jr., and Kaleb Johnson would face a tough task carrying the backfield against stronger competition, which is why Jennings believes Green Bay should make a splash and add another proven playmaker.

“An addition of Taylor or maybe even Pollard would make this team unreal…” said Jennings.

The Colts appear open to trading Taylor and have received interest from several teams, including Green Bay, but Indianapolis reportedly wants a substantial return. The New York Giants offered a second- and fifth-round pick before withdrawing that offer, while the Minnesota Vikings have also been linked to Taylor.

A deal could give Green Bay a long-term addition, as Taylor is under contract beyond this season. He currently ranks No. 15 in PFN’s RB Impact Metric with a grade of 77.4.

Pollard would likely be the cheaper alternative, although Tennessee reportedly has no interest in trading him. If that stance changes, he could make sense as a Packers backfield option amid uncertainty around Jacobs. He is the 24th-ranked RB in PFN’s RB Impact Metric with a grade of 73.5. If Jacobs is out, this could be a great addition.

Although adding a running back would make the offense more multidimensional, Jordan Love has led a passing attack that has been absolutely lethal through the first half. He has formed a ridiculous trio with receivers Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, who are both top-18 in PFN’s WR Impact Rankings.

Green Bay’s passing offense is clicking, and the defense has been strong as well. The Packers could also get another major boost with Micah Parsons working his way back from injury.

At 6-3, they have positioned themselves as a legitimate NFC contender, but they’ll need to sustain this level of play in a competitive conference. Adding another proven running back, as Jennings suggested, could make the offense even more complete and strengthen Green Bay’s chances of making a deep playoff run.
