The agent for Packers FB John Kuhn, Kevin Gold, told Pete Dougherty that there is “mutual interest” between the two sides regarding a new contract.
Aaron Rodgers offered some strong support for Kuhn being back with the team next year and he’s coming off of a solid 2013 season for Green Bay.
It’s worth noting that Kuhn played a little over 28 percent of the team’s offensive snaps last year, and plays a position that has depreciate in value for a number of years now. However, Kuhn was able to supplement his lack of playing time by contributing on special teams.
The Packers paid Kuhn a base salary of $1.8 million last year, but it seems likely that they could find a more reasonable figure next year.
