The Green Bay Packers’ decision to sign or not sign Nick Perry is no easy one. Today’s Titletown Report features a case for keeping him in the building.

Good morning, and welcome to the first Titletown Report of the week. The offseason moves on, and the focus is well and truly shifting towards free agency and the 2017 NFL Draft. We have you covered here at Lombardi Ave.

Free agency grabs the spotlight this morning, but for once not about players on other teams the Packers could (or should) attempt to sign, but rather one of their own.

Let’s dive into the Titletown Report for Monday.

Sam Shields’ future in the NFL remains in doubt, but the Packers couldn’t clear him medically. Talent isn’t the issue here, it’s the worrying history of concussions. The fact Shields was still dealing with concussion symptoms five months after suffering the injury, along with the increasing amount of time it has taken to recover from each concussion, makes one wonder if retirement it the best option for his health.

Tom Brady may have a fifth ring, but he’s without his Super Bowl jersey from last week’s win. He isn’t alone, though. Brett Favre is unsure of the whereabouts of his Super Bowl-winning jersey from 1997.
