The Green Bay Packers have signed cornerback Nate Hobbs, who previously played for the Raiders, and he will don the iconic No. 21 jersey, a number synonymous with Hall of Famer Charles Woodson. Hobbs follows in the footsteps of other notable players who wore the number, including Eric Stokes, who held the jersey prior. Hobbs' transition marks a significant shift in the Packers' secondary as they aim to bolster their defense.

Hobbs wore No. 8 at Illinois, and No. 39 during his time with the Raiders, showing versatility without a strong preference for a specific number. With his arrival, expectations are high for him to make a substantial impact in Green Bay's defense, particularly in a division that continually pushes for supremacy.
