The Green Bay Packers have announced the signing of free agent Andre Dillard, as they look to address their offensive line, particularly the left tackle position. With David Bakhtiari becoming a free agent after his release, the Packers have a need to strengthen this area of their team. Currently, they have Rasheed Walker, Kadeem Teifort, Zach Tom, Luke Tenuta, and Caleb Jones at tackle on their roster. Dillard will likely compete for the left tackle job. In addition to signing Dillard, the Packers may also look to draft multiple linemen next week to further strengthen their offensive line.
Andre Dillard is a 28-year-old tackle who has primarily played left tackle throughout his career but also has experience at right tackle. He has played 59 games and started 19 of them in his four seasons with the Tennessee Titans and Philadelphia Eagles. In 2023, he started 10 games at left tackle for the Titans and played a career-high 562 offensive snaps last season. The Titans released him on March 15th following his time with the Eagles after being drafted 22nd overall in 2019.
