Which quarterbacks are on the Green Bay Packers’ 2022 regular-season schedule?
The Packers invested significant resources on the defensive side of the football and may now boast the most talented defense in football, at least on paper. General manager Brian Gutekunst re-signed linebacker De’Vondre Campbell and cornerback Rasul Douglas, signed defensive lineman Jarran Reed and used first-round picks on linebacker Quay Walker and defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt. In all, the Packers are likely to start seven first-round picks on defense in 2022. Three others were prized free-agent acquisitions.
The quality of any NFL defense is in its ability to combat the game’s best quarterbacks. Getting to the Super Bowl requires beating the top passers. The Packers hope an elite defense can help make up for any potential regression on offense created by losing weapons – including Davante Adams – in the passing game.
The regular season will provide tests for Joe Barry’s defense. Here’s a look a the quarterbacks on the Packers’ schedule in 2022, categorized by three different tiers: likely MVP candidates, experienced veterans and young guns.
