One quarter through the regular season, which five players have impressed the most for the Green Bay Packers?

If you’d have said back in the spring that the Green Bay Packers would start the 2019 season at 3-1 and in first place of the NFC North, most people would’ve taken that. After two disappointing seasons in a row, beginning this year with a fast start was important.

The Packers won some important games, including two against division rivals. Those wins count the most late in the season, and could be especially important given how competitive this division looks to be after four weeks.

General manager Brian Gutekunst made some big changes to the roster in the offseason, and the moves needed to pay off for the Packers to get back into playoff contention. So far, he looks like a genius with the moves he made in the offseason.

But there’s still a lot of football to be played and the Packers have a lot to improve in the coming weeks, starting on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

That said, we’re a quarter of the way through the Packers’ regular season schedule, which is a perfect time to review what we’ve seen so far. Let’s take a look at the five standout performers for this team after the opening four weeks.
