According to Jeremy Fowler, the Packers and CB Rasul Douglas are having ongoing talks about a potential extension to keep him in Green Bay.
However, Fowler adds there’s a high level of interest in other teams following Douglas’ breakout 2021 season.
Douglas, 26, was a former third-round pick of the Eagles back in 2017. The Panthers claimed him off of waivers from the Eagles in September of 2020.
Douglas played out the final year of his four-year, $3.17 million contract and made a base salary of $754,750 for the 2020 season with Carolina. He later signed a one-year, $990,000 deal with the Raiders last offseason, but Las Vegas released him during camp.
He quickly caught on with the Texans but was among their final roster cuts. The Cardinals signed him to their practice squad and he was signed away by the Packers in October.
In 2021, Douglas appeared in 12 games for the Packers and recorded 56 total tackles, five interceptions, including two returned for touchdowns, one forced fumble and 13 pass deflections. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 16 cornerback out of 116 qualifying players.
We have him included in our Top 100 – 2022 Free Agents list.
