Packers evaluate Aaron Banks amid struggles and training camp issues
Summary

The Green Bay Packers are facing questions regarding offensive guard Aaron Banks as training camp progresses. Signed last offseason to a four-year, $77 million deal, Banks has underperformed, allowing two sacks and 27 pressures in 484 pass-blocking snaps last season. He has recently dealt with knee tendinitis, limiting his participation in training camp. The Packers have multiple options to replace him, including rookie Jager Burton, who performed well in practices. Head coach Matt LaFleur expressed frustration over Banks' availability, as the team considers its options for the season ahead.
