Packers Restructure Aaron Banks' Deal to Clear Salary Cap Space

To become cap compliant before the new league year begins on March 11, the Green Bay Packers are restructuring left guard Aaron Banks' contract. By converting a portion of his base salary or signing bonus into a roster bonus, the team will spread cap hits into future years. Spotrac projects his 2026 cap hit will drop from $24.8 million to $12 million, signaling the team's intent to retain Banks through at least 2028.
