A new era is starting to build at the Green Bay Packers. After trading away their 4X MVP Aaron Rodgers and WR Allen Lazard to the New York Jets, the team is focusing on building a new roster with younger talents, being led by probable franchise QB of the future Jordan Love. Amidst the roster restructuring, the Packers have recently come forward with their NFL schedule for the 2023 season.
But there was one particular Packers player who was not impressed by the quality of the release video that was made. And he took to social media to show his displeasure with the job done.

For Packers OT David Bakhtiari, losing his good friend Aaron Rodgers via trade to the Jets must have been difficult, as he is standing his ground alone in the team now. Rumors had it that the team is looking at Bakhtiari as a possible player to be traded in the offseason. But that is not his concern at the moment. Bakhtiari was left feeling unimpressed with the effort put into making the 2023 Packers schedule video. The Packers OT took to Twitter to ask the Packers’ VP of communications if he had given the green flag for the video to be released.

It is evident that Bakhtiari was not happy with the quality of the video. It is definitely not as creative as other teams’ efforts. Look at the Los Angeles Chargers video, for example. They released their 2023 NFL schedule video in an artistic action anime style that surely captures the interest of fans.

And Bakhtiari was not shy in letting his thoughts known, as he along with fans shared their opinions on the same.
Bakhtiari and fans troll the team’s schedule video
After Bakhtiari posted the tweet, fans also joined in with the OT to express their views on the Packers schedule video. When the VP replied, Bakhtiari said that he could have asked a TikTok creator to create better content.
It’s booty cheeks! I could’ve asked an aspiring TikTok creator that’s still in high school to create something better.
Did I clear that up for you?

At least 69 called it out. Sheesh this was bad. Why is the social media team so bland, conservative, and out of touch?

While Bakhtiari will try to not let the issue take too much of his time, he will definitely be looking forward to gearing up for the upcoming matches according to the schedule. But that is only if he does not end up being traded by the team, as rumors have suggested. What do you think will happen? Let us know in the comments below.
