David Bakhtiari, a two-time All-Pro tackle, had a forgettable and injury-riddled 2023 season, leading to rampant rumors surrounding his future in Green Bay. According to reports, the Packers are planning to cut ties with the 32-year-old and the $20 million he is projected to earn this coming season. Bakhtiari’s big-money deal also carries a whopping $39.9 million hit on Green Bay’s cap.
David Bakhtiari’s cryptic post comes amid questions about the Green Bay Packers’ future.
Bakhtiari hasn’t said much about his future with the Packers as he enters the final year of his contract. However, the three-time Pro Bowl player took to Instagram on Sunday to share what appears to be a cryptic message:
“Those who do not know will learn. Those who know will appreciate. I will not disappoint those that appreciate me. “#cannotcomebackwithoutasetback #dinnerfortwo”
Bakhtiari appears to be addressing his critics while also expressing gratitude to the people who continue to believe in him.
The #cantcomebackwithoutasetback hashtag is also intriguing, given that the veteran is attempting to return from a season-ending knee injury that forced him to miss the 2023 season after only one game played.
Bakh might also be talking to returning to Green Bay for another run in 2024. It remains to be seen whether the Packers share this sentiment.
