The Green Bay Packers are facing uncertainty when it comes to their kicking situation heading into the 2024 season. With three kickers – Anders Carlson, Greg Joseph, and Jack Podlesny – all vying for the starting job, the team has yet to narrow down their options to the top two contenders. This rare situation has left the Packers unsure of who will be their kicker when the season kicks off.
The final call on who will be the starting kicker is up to GM Brian Gutekunst, but it is a topic that the team has been discussing. Despite some struggles towards the end of the previous season, incumbent kicker Anders Carlson seems to be the frontrunner for the job despite his struggles. However, LaFleur noted that Carlson had a solid spring and impressed him during offseason activities.
Despite Carlson’s positive performance, there is still competition between him and the other two kickers, as well as open positions in place. The team will continue to evaluate each player’s performance as they head into preseason and training camp. The Packers are looking for consistency and reliability in their kicker position and have not made any decisions yet.
