OG. Indiana. Dan Feeney. 30. player. 49.

With Josh Sitton now in Chicago, the Green Bay Packers offensive line has looked pretty shaky to start the 2016 season. If they want to keep protecting Aaron Rodgers, then it would be wise to look for an offensive guard early.

Fortunately for the Packers, there’s an All-American guard waiting out of Indiana in Dan Feeney. A former teammate of current Packers rookie Jason Spriggs, Feeney has paved the way for some elite Big Ten running backs in Tevin Coleman and Jordan Howard.

Feeney’s absence was felt this past Saturday when Indiana fell to Wake Forest, as he’s arguably the most valuable player for the Hoosiers. He does a great job at paving the way for his running back and can protect his quarterback from A-gap pressure.

With Feeney stepping in for Sitton, the Packers offensive line problems could potentially start to fade away.
