Despite trade rumors, the news has gotten fans excited about his recovery. Alexander missed much of last season after undergoing an operation to fix a PCL injury in his knee. He has also had to deal with groin, back and shoulder problems in the last two seasons and has played only 14 games since 2022.

A fan liked what he saw from Alexander.

“Jaire Comeback Player of the Year season incoming,” user @Moshpit37 replied.

This fan called the McKinney and Alexandre secondary the best duo in the business.

"If Alexander is healthy he’s the best in the business. He and @mckinney15__ make the best duo in the nfl. I don’t understand why the packers would look to move him. He was #1 in NFL from 2020 - 2022. 2 unhealthy seasons since but he’s that guy. It’s football guys get hurt. Keep!”

A fan wants Alexander to stay and work with the recently acquired Nate Hobbs.

“Hell yea guys!! Building more chemistry heading into the season. With the addition of Hobbs this secondary can take the next step.”

However, not all Cheeseheads are this optimistic.
