Mekhi Becton signs with Packers
Bleeding Green Nation • • sports
Key Points:
- Mekhi Becton, formerly of the Philadelphia Eagles, has signed with the Green Bay Packers' practice squad after drawing interest from the Pittsburgh Steelers, with no reported interest from the Eagles despite their interior offensive line struggles.
- Earlier reports indicated the Eagles were concerned about Becton's off-field behavior and agency changes, which raised red flags and diminished their interest in re-signing him.
- Becton's career declined after leaving the Eagles post-Super Bowl LIX, struggling with the Los Angeles Chargers before being cut in 2025 and remaining a free agent until joining the Packers.
- The Eagles' lack of effort to bring Becton back suggests they do not view him as a solution to their current offensive line issues.
