Kenyan Drake Warns NFL About Packers’ Offense With Boastful Post
It's pretty much impossible to discuss the 2023 Green Bay Packers without gesturing in the direction of their youth. Once renowned for trotting out elder statesmen like quarterbacks Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers, the Packers have an average age this season of under 26—making them the youngest team in the league.
With new quarterback Jordan Love running the show, Green Bay has hovered around the playoff race for much of the season. Elimination from playoff contention could be looming around the corner for the 6–8 Packers, but Green Bay has shown enough this year to be considered a threat in the future.
Packers running back Kenyan Drake, who will turn 30 on Jan. 26, indicated as such in a Thursday afternoon tweet.

Green Bay's leading passer, rusher and receiver—Love, running back AJ Dillon and wide receiver Jayden Reed—are 25, 25 and 23, respectively.
Highlights of the Packers' 2023 campaign include a 29–22 win over the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, followed by a 27–19 home victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Dec. 3.
Green Bay is scheduled to play road games against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday and New Year's Eve against the Minnesota Vikings before closing its season at home against the Chicago Bears on Jan. 7.
