Packers' Jordan Morgan Set at LT: Survivor-Pick Read
Aug 21, 2026
Jordan Morgan lands the Packers' left tackle job
After waiting his turn, Jordan Morgan is getting his shot. Green Bay's 2024 first-round pick is set to take over at left tackle, tasked with protecting quarterback Jordan Love. It's the kind of role the Packers drafted him for, and he's finally in position to fill it heading into the season.
What it means for your survivor pick
A blindside protector for Love is exactly the kind of variable survivor players should track. A first-round pick stepping into a starting job carries upside, but there's real uncertainty in handing a high-leverage spot to a young lineman still proving he can hold up over a full slate. If Morgan settles in quickly, Green Bay's offense keeps its floor and the Packers stay in the conversation as a safe survivor pick in the right matchup. If he struggles early against a strong pass rush, Love's production — and Green Bay's win probability — takes a hit. For now, treat the Packers as a name to watch rather than a lock, and lean on the matchup before committing. New to the format? Brush up on how survivor pools work before you burn a team you might want later.
