After serving a one-game suspension, jaire alexander returned to green bay packers practice, his first appearance since missing the team’s win over the minnesota vikings.
Alexander, the highest-paid nfl cornerback at $21 million per year, almost put the team out of reach by declaring his intention to delay until the second half.
Alexander, who plays in his hometown of charlotte, expressed surprise at the suspension and instead hoped for a fine.
Despite the initial shock, packers head coach matt lafleur believes the suspension strengthened his team’s relationship. when asked about alexander’s history of fines and his potential start in the season finale, he was noncommittal, claiming that details would be revealed later this week.
Alexander was welcomed back to lafleur on monday, highlighting a positive exchange and expressing optimism about his potential.
The key takeaway for alexander, who has only played six games due to injury, is the importance of working in tandem with coaches and the front office.
Alexander sees the suspension as a valuable learning opportunity and vows to improve contact going forward, acknowledging the need for better communication.
