Three Packers Expected on NFL 2025 All-Breakout Team

The Green Bay Packers have three players—guard Jordan Morgan, linebacker Edgerrin Cooper, and defensive end Lukas Van Ness—named to NFL analyst Bucky Brooks' 2025 All-Breakout Team, signaling high expectations for the upcoming season. Van Ness, a 2023 first-round pick, has struggled to meet expectations through his first two seasons, limited by injuries and playing time, but Brooks projects a breakout as a pass-rushing specialist with increased snaps alongside Rashan Gary. Cooper, who had a strong rookie season with notable tackles for loss and sacks, is expected to elevate to a Pro Bowl-caliber player. Morgan is viewed as a promising addition to the offensive line, potentially becoming a key contributor to quarterback Jordan Love's success. The Packers' defense, which showed inconsistency in pass rushing last season, could become one of the NFL's most disruptive units if these young players meet their breakout potential. Overall, these developments are seen as crucial for the Packers to transition from playoff contenders to legitimate championship contenders in 2025.
