Packers rumors: B.J. Raji confident in contract extension

The Green Bay Packers have spent the offseason locking up key members of their franchise, including quarterback Aaron Rodgers and linebacker Clay Matthews. There’s at least one other established player that is reportedly in the mix for an extension with the team, but he doesn’t seem to be overly concerned – at least publically. Defensive tackle B.J. Raji told The Green Bay Press-Gazette that he’s confident the Packers and his representation will find common ground on a potential extension.
“I’m not really going to talk contracts,” Raji said. “Obviously, the Packers are a great organization and I’m sure they’ll do right by me. I’ll leave it at that.”
Raji has been a force in the middle of the Packers’ defense for the past four seasons. He started 14 games for the team last year, and while he didn’t record a sack he received praise from the team.


Following the extensions of Rodgers and Matthews, the Packers have $13 million in cap space. Raji is entering the final year of his rookie contract, but he’s hoping to remain with Green Bay for years to come.
