Packers sign second-round pick Javon Bullard

The Green Bay Packers announced the signing of safety Javon Bullard, a second-round pick out of Georgia, on Monday.

Bullard is the second-to-last pick from the 11-player 2024 draft class to sign. Only first-round pick Jordan Morgan remains unsigned. The nine other players in the draft class have already signed.

Listed by the Packers at 5-10 and 198 pounds, Bullard will have a legitimate chance to start at safety as a rookie in 2024. He is a versatile defensive back who the Packers believe can play deep, in the box and in the slot, giving him the interchangeable profile coveted by Jeff Hafley’s new defensive scheme.
