JUST IN: Tim Terry Sends $86 Million Offer for Packers’ Preseason Hero Right After Colts Game — Brian Gutekunst Responds: “He’s Not for Sale”
Green Bay, WI — Minutes after the Packers’ comeback win over the Colts, Kansas City moved fast. Chiefs VP of Player Personnel Tim Terry — a former long-time Packers personnel executive — reportedly floated a four-year, $86 million trade-and-extend framework to pry away Green Bay’s preseason hero, Tyron Herring.
League sources described the approach as an aggressive, “trade-and-extend” concept: premium draft capital attached to a ready-made extension, aimed at landing the rookie defensive back who sealed Green Bay’s 23–19 victory with a last-second, 4th-and-10 ball-jarring hit.
The Packers’ response was immediate — and emphatic. GM Brian Gutekunst shut the door with a down-to-earth message that left little room for interpretation:
“He’s not for sale. I know what you’re thinking, Tim — you’ve still got the same sharp eye as ever. But after Tyron’s hero moment, and seeing the fire in him when he puts on the green and gold, I see the future of the Packers in that kid — and that future is staying in Green Bay.”
Why the Chiefs Pushed Now
-
Instant impact profile: A fearless closer in high-leverage snaps who can play teams, nickel/dime, and pressure packages.
Culture fit: Kansas City prizes competitive versatility and finishers — the exact traits Herring flashed against Indy.
Why the Packers Said No
-
Identity over inventory: Green Bay views that game-saving play as a cultural marker for their 2025 defense.
Depth chart symmetry: With youth investments up front, a cost-controlled back-end playmaker balances the roster build.
Locker-room message: Reward the DNA you want repeated — don’t flip it for picks the morning after it shows up on tape.
For now, Kansas City’s gambit appears rebuffed. And in Green Bay, the takeaway is simple: the player who just authored the preseason’s defining moment isn’t a trade chip — he’s part of the plan.
