Packers

packers lt David Bakhtiari Ready to return and well this season, but there are new faces in familiar places as most of his former team-mates have moved on from the last time he was completely healthy.

“I have a group of friends who were here but left.” Bakhtiari said via The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman. “But I’m making new things happen. I’m not a crazy introvert. I still feel like I can relate to a group of guys. Yeah, I’m different. I’m a dad now and in my 30s. Guys in their 20s are still chasing tail and whatnot. They’re They all love to go shopping. I couldn’t (not) care less about shopping… I keep jumping on my phone, but like, am I livestreaming on Twitch, or doing anything? No.”

‘We’re not really into an ACL problem’ Bakhtiari told about his health problems. “It’s been a really long time since we put this chap to bed. There’s just (there) other issues to navigate around. This was probably the first time I didn’t really get a grip on the injury. And I was just like, ‘I’m done. It’s all over.'” a thing.’ Anything you can think of… I can assure you I did.It was a long, agonizing time, and I never thought I’d get out of it, nor understood why.

Bakhtiari was asked about his thoughts that if he made one or two more All-Pro teams, he could still end up being a Pro Football Hall of Fame candidate one day.

“I wouldn’t say that was like my goal with this.” Bakhtiari said. “You know, I got picked in the fourth round, I’m 21, wide-eyed, bushy-tailed. I guess I just wanted to be the best version of myself and give my all whenever I could, and I could go to sleep at night knowing I did my best.” Now come to find out that my best has been very good and really doing your best is a great recipe for being at the top of your game. I didn’t really think about it, but I mean now, obviously, I certainly have a resume that can rival it, but I will say “Is it pretty? Yeah. But that was never my goal… The goal was to win Super Bowls, play my best game, make it a career, and for me, is my family happy? Do I make my parents proud with the name on my back?”

Packers GM Brian Guttikonst He even participated in Bakhtiari’s Journey, which is about his health problems.

“I think Dave is a professional pro” Gettykunst received. “What he’s been through has been tough. It’s been tough for our football team. It’s been tough for him, and I think he’s in a good position now to understand what he has to do to get ready to play. … You would like these guys to go out every day to train and go through everything.” Something, but he’s seen a lot, a lot of things that we really need to see, he’s seen.
