The Green Bay Packers are cutting ties with cornerback Jaire Alexander. The news of the two-time Pro Bowler's release was initially reported by NFL Network, then later confirmed Monday by the team.

Rapoport followed up to report the Packers and Alexander agreed to see what trade avenues they might have and considered restructuring his contract. Albert Breer of The MMQB reported in April the two-time Pro Bowler preferred an outright release so he'd have more freedom in choosing his next team.
