The Facts:
It appears the Packers haven’t made any recent attempts to offer Jennings a new contract.
Reported by the Green Bay Press-Gazette
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
No real surprise here. ...Absent a long-term agreement, it would cost the Packers in the neighborhood of $10 million to tag Jennings and keep him under contract through the 2013 season. Indeed, there's still no reason to believe the Packers will make an effort top retain him. Jennings will turn 30 in September, and the common belief is the Packers don’t want to invest that much money in a player who has been injury prone the last couple years. Without Jennings, the Packers would have to rely on Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and James Jones as their three primary wide receiver targets. They can hope Jarrett Boykin emerges as a credible No. 4, or attempt to draft a receiver in April.
