Packers Strengthen Team with McManus and Anderson

The Green Bay Packers have strategically strengthened their team by securing key players, including tendering safety Zayne Anderson, an exclusive rights free agent, to ensure depth and reliability in their special teams. Additionally, they have signed kicker Brandon McManus to a three-year, $15.3 million contract with a $5 million signing bonus, stabilizing their kicking game after previous challenges. McManus, who joined the Packers mid-season, demonstrated exceptional performance with a 95.2% field goal success rate and game-winning kicks against the Texans and Jaguars. Despite past legal issues, which were resolved, McManus has become a consistent asset, praised for his confidence and adaptability under various conditions. These moves reflect the Packers' strategy to maintain competitive performance in the upcoming season.
